Wei Known Co-operative
Manager Succumbs From
Stomach Trouble .

David Evenson, 16 year old son of
Mr. and Mrs. Martin Evenson, met
with a painful accident Wednesday
evening while enjoying a ski tour
south. of the city.- "He was proceeding
through the timber near the Sanitar-
ium, when, spying a rabbit, he took
a shot at the fleeing animal with a
38 calibre revolver which 'he carried
in his pocket. The second attempt fail-
ed, and in breaking the weapon to as-
certain the cause of trouble, the cart-
ridge mysteriously exploded, the bul-
let entering his left forearm .near the
elbow. He walked as far as the Model
laundry, when a driver picked him up
and conveyed him to the' offices-of the
Thief River Clinic.

He was placed, on the operating
table and' doctors Froelich and Fisher
removed the bullet after' locating it
by an X-ray examination near the el-
bow joint. It was a painful ordeal
which very luckily, according to the
statement of the doctors, will leave
no permanent bad results. Evenson
is a senior in the high school.

,'. More attention is and ought to be
giyen today by schools throughout the
country to the physical development
and the health of" the child than has 1
been common practise heretofore. .One
of the very first requisites for a" use-
ful and successful life is good health.
It is fitting, therefore! that this ques- |
tdon be given attention. by the par-
ents and teachers of Thief River Falls.

Health.. Master, Henry Arneson, ac-

MAIL DELIVERED ONLY TO THE FELLOW NEXT DOOR

L. B. Hanna, I former governor of
North Dakota and. capitalist, declared
in an interview thatj there is plenty .
of money in the Uriited States, but
that for some time H has 'been diffi-
cult to obtain money for farm loans
and rates have been high and are still
high. •

"I believe that with/ an easier money
market and the j lowering in rates of
interest on good 'securities that money
before long .will begin to come to the
northwest, for farm loans," said Mr.
Hanna.

'Money, like everything, else, na-
turally seeks to secure as good a re-
turn as possible and when high grade
bonds and like securities are earning
low rates of interest money will again
flow into farm loans and then the
competition for them will bring down
the rates of interest. •

•There has been a marked apprecia-
tion recently in prices for United
States government bonds, the Victory ■
bonds going to par and over and the
other issues ruining close to par.
These bonds- draw a low rate of inter-
est as we have looked at interest rates
for the last two or three years. Com-
mercial paper of the higher class is
floating today at a low rate of m-

teresVand a fe T months ag0:

PENROSED!

.'The Thief Kiver Falls Tribune,
edited by Jim Arnesdn, one of the '
biggest :ogs in the republican
political machine, is out for Kel-
logg foi . senator. This shows
where -the old guard stands.—
Fairmont Sentinel.
Its a cruel world. Just as we im
agined we were making headway as
a reforme:-, along comes the Sentinel
. and boots us into the Penrose column.
Well, no natter, since we are in the
"Boss" class, we have a job for Frank
Day. If h°. will look around a little
he 'will .-find himself in bed with un-
desirable |:ompany, his old arch en-
emy,- which he has kicked out of the
house on several occasions, none other
than— booze. If Mr. Day will furnish
proof tha 1 ; this influence is not vic-
iously op[ osing the 'junior senator
from Min le'sota— then the Tribune
■ will support th& canuidates of the
democratic party in the coming cam-
paign. _

PACKING HOUSE LABOR
At trie present moment there
are thousands of stockyards
workers on strik*e as a protest
-against a further reduction in
.' wages. , The strikers claim, and
rightly | so, that the cost of ^ liv-
ing has not decreased sufficiently
to warnnt wages being reduced.
It cannot be denied . that the
living conditions of the stockyards
workers and their families are

■ anythin; but • desirable. Back of
the yards are dwelling places that
Ogden Armour would not place
his autc mobile in, much less shelt-
er his norses. How long would

' his daujgter, Mrs. J.. J. Mitchell,
work in the stockyards 'for $15
per weik standing in water all
day. If it is not good enough for-
her the: i why should other women
and thear daughters be compelled
to subn it to such intolerable con-

, ditio'ns!

The plea of the packers that
they must reduce wages to bring
business back to normal is 'bunk.'
Let us examine the facts;

The assets of Armour & Co.
in 1920 were $500,000,000 and
surplus $70,000,000. The gross
sales vere about $1,000,000,000.

■ The griss sales in 1919 were $1,-
038,000 000. This'company is con-
trolled by the Armour family. In*

1910 thiy voted themsel-es a 400
■per cent stock' dividend, raising
the. capital from i^0,00l)',000 to
$100,00 D,000. The company was

THE; WISE MR QUAMME
"Too [much credit rather thai] a
lack of it is responsible-, for the
financial ills of northwestern
farmers, according to E. G.
Quamnie, president of the federal
land bank of St. Paul, who testi-
fied before the joint congressional
commission on rural ■ credits at
the hearing being concluded to day
at the '■ state capitol. Mr. Quini-
me spoke late yesterday and op-
posed creating any new maciin-
ery for extending credit. to farm-
ers, who in many cases are^ lay-

000,000 on farms, or one-eighth
• the total amount loaned since the ■
system became effective. "It is
a question," he said, "of how far -
we want to go with the govern-
ment in business. The War E-__
nance i corporation ds only ar in-
flation to care for the situation
which;. the Federal Reserve bank
could inot meet., If this c -edit
machinery is put on a permanent
basis', ithe government faces '. luge
losses. I believe the farmers. can
be financed by private capit.il in
the future."

Senator Magnus Johnson said. I
that .farmers have b'orrowe 1 to '
the limit and asked whether new
machinery -to allow further loans
is not imperatiyfe. "Farmers may
need money," said Mr. Quarime,
"but if they get it, you should not
call it. credit, but charity."
Have things come to such 1 pass,
that an official of a governmen ; insti-
tution can see no future financial re-
lief for the farming industry except
charity t

Those are harsh words, Mr.
me. .

Such remarks do not squarje well
with President Harding's ac ion
calling a meeting at Washingtm this
month' to make a survey of the situa-
tion. • . !

The president must intend to. put

And why not?

Unless the farming indus ry re-
covers from its present stite of
paralysis, ' which is general- in all
parts of the country, ihe;e can never

Getting. agricultuie b„ck on its' feet
isn't altogether a matter of tusiness
either; it may prove ^o be just self-
preservation.

A recent survey shows .that a half
million acres of farm land lied idle in
the ! winter -wheat section.

No one knows how many acres will

FRIDAY, JANUARY 6, 1922

the terrible ruin wrought by jazz, and ^moves from the columns of the Fair-
is satisfied with a pafagraph suggest- jmont Sentinel a prolific source of
iiig that parents, churches! and schools editorial ianter. As the boogey man

learn of the evil and act against jit.
Nat a line, in the report before us em-
phasizes the need of parents teaching
their children the advantages, of mor-
ality and high character in them-
selves. In the final accounting the re-
sponsibility does lie with the parents.
If they teach their children good moiS
als and clean living, and provide them
with clean interests and .recreations,
the jazz dance hall will not lure them
to ruin and eventually will die of in-
anition.

But the-- Vigilance association over-
looks this point inyjts eagerness ;for
reform by force.- It-is^easier'and more
spectacular to attack something_
against which ■ a prohibitory law may-
be asked than to attack lazy, indif-'
ferent, and incapable parents in their
homes. ,

Perhaps the association is right.
Perhaps eventually, with the aidj of
Dr. Crafts and other associates) it
will be able to remove' all evil and, all
temptation from the 1 world by law.
Then no- one can go to ruin, whether
child or adult. There will be no deed
even for parents, except to produce
children. Parental instruction and
home life can be eliminated except for
the entertainment thjey afford, ; be-
cause no rmoral principles will be nec-
essary in a world in which no wrong
can be done.

• In the meantime it is our guess that
parents can do more to keep their
children decent than all the laws ever
conceived by man and reformer.

at the winter show there will be one

If the bloc functions as well as we

ates the much needed amount,

We note in the Congressional Rec-
ord, that during the debates in Con-
gress over this bill, .statistics furnish-
ed by Dr. Philip Van \ngen c-f the Co-
lumbia university, showed that the
maternal mortality ; in the - United
States is the greatest of any country
in the world. In 1918 ialone, we lost
23,000 mothers in childbirth. Most
of these deaths were preventable,
says Dr. Van Ingen. Italy, Norway,
Sweden, Prussia, Japan, Finland and
Hungary have less than one-half the
mortality of our- country. England,
France, Australia, New Zealand, Ire-
land have a little more than half as
large while Scotland, Switzerland and
Spain show about, eighty per cent of
the mortality loss taking place in the
United States.. •

When we realize that the ., proper
care and education could have saved
the greater per cent of these mothers

this winter, but this is not in the least
cheapening flie importance of better
livestock.' It is, rather, getting the
industry on the basis where more
can afford to becoml interested and
more will be interested, in securing
high class animals. This' is what
should be done, and breeders are to
be commended for their' sincere deter-
mination, "by all means to have the
sales."

During the two-day sale, February
8 and 9, no special effort \yill be made
to have straight breed sales. In fact,
with a two-day sale, it would be al :
most impossible to expect that, any
one day could be used for selling ani-
mals in any particular breed. Men

- Agricultural loans through the War
Finance corporation were explained at
the session by M. O. Grangaard of
Rogers, N. D.,' secretary of the agn-

' cultural lAan -committee for this dis-
trict Mr Grangaard, himself both a
farmer and a banker, answered a run-
ning fire of- questions, many of which
showed a feeling that the system is
not benef ting farmers as much- as it
'was inter (led.

"Loans by the War- Finance corpor-
ation," Mr. Grangaard explained,
"help indirectly, but none the less
definitely, every -person who borrows
from' the bank. Perhaps the- very
farmer wno complains that he can get
no more money despite the govern-
ment credit should be thanking the
War Finance corporation that he is
not required to liquidate on an old
" note, or that he is able to renew a
note. -With deposits falling, many
banks are obliged to sustain the loans
outstand ng with funds from the War
Finance ;orporation.

; "I she uld. hesitate to condemn a
bank for making a loan,, nofv, .par-
ticularly a loan to pay a debt to _a
merchant or someone who has made

- a profit J on the farmer. A bank should
not be ekpectid to' assume ;an obliga-
tion which a merchant,, with an equal

" interest in the community, should car-
ry until fall..

"But I do condemn a bank that, on
feeling the pinch, calls in the notes
: of the farmers without seeking the

"All exaggerated movements, es-
pecially of the upper parts of the

."Don't permit vulgar jazz music to
be played. .

"Don't permit .young men to hold
their partners tightly.

'Don't permit, partners ■ to dance

Prohibition is excellently enforced

ly well enforced tri^ be a jvery great
improvement' ojrer 'the license system.

This is the result of an investiga-
tion covering several months, through
official channels and direct inquiry as
recently announced by the Dr. Deets
Pickett, Research secretary of the
board of prohibition, temperance "and
public morals of the Methodist Episco
pal church. The organization of the
church was used as one of the agencies
of information.

The investigation showed that
there ; has been an enormous de-
crease in the consumption of liquor,
decrease not less than; eighty-five
and possibly more than j ninety per
cent," according to Dr. Pickett. "This
has resulted in a very large decrease
in the number of arrests for dvunken-
ness and in a' very considerable in-
crease in the' purchasing power of the
poor and of the skilled and unskilled
laborers," says the report. "In San
Francisco, prohibition decreased ar-
rests for drunkenness !in its first year
from 17,354 to 1,814. In Los Angeles
from 15,830 to 2,589.' In Boston, if
was from 52,682". to 16,487: In Balti-

were 1,165 arrests for drunkenness

Last Friday was an unusually busy
day in the Leigard railroad yards.
There had nj>t for a long time been so
much freight traffic as was going on
that day. But the day did- not go by
without a serious accident and which,
to make things worse, . culminated in
a heart-rending tragedy.

A north-b'ound through freight had
just crossedlthe Red Lakej,river bridge
when bang and crash its engine collid-
ed with that of the south-bound locai
freight train. The division train
dispatcher, it was: learned later, had
unluckily got the' "wires crossed." Yet,
Happily, no killing , resulted, other
than a cow that had miscalculated her
steps, getting in between the engines,
was cut "square in two."

Compound Interest

—how it works

! !

At ordinary rates, it takes money at simple in-
terest five to eight times longer to double itself
than at Compound Interest.

Many banks compound interest only twice a year.
This bank compounds interest four times a year,
which makes money grow faster,

So This Is a Good Bank f 0T Savings

A new interest quarter starts January 1st. All
money you have on deposit by the 1 Oth will earn
interest from January 1st. ■ . j

the times arrives it is certain to de-

the very thing that the Connell men
are conscious of, fully realizing that
Crookston is out to scalp 'em.

TWO HARBORS FOR TWO GAMES. ■

Showing great improvement over
other games ( f this season, the Thief
River Falls ill-star aggregation of
basketballers laid down the law to
the fast Excf lsior five, here for two
games on Fr.day and Saturday eve-
nings at the Auditorium.

The game Friday ended by Thief
River Falls winning 35 to 23 and the
Saturday congest found them again
in the lead, S 1 to 30.

Thief Rive: Falls basket ball en-
thusiasts surj got. a handsome half
a dollars worth of thrills in both
contests, fe itured by' clever and
speedy worl: on the part of both
quints. The largest crowd of the
season saw 'I 'riday's contest, when it
is estimated that the sidelines at the
Auditorium hsld several hundred spec-
tators, all oi i whom were geared for
basket, ball and prepared to see what
they' finally i .dually witnessed, a bas-
ket ball gan e that will go . down as
perhaps the greatest contest of skill
and speed! evjr played in Thief River
Falls. ■ • j '-. .

The first game started with the
teams settinj a terrific pace, for one
another. Thi offensive and defensive
tactics of ea< h were precise and quick
and the gane was featured by com-
paratively few fumbles on. the part
of any of the players.

"Swede" Carlson worked like a fer-
\ret, with sp ;ed to burn, feeding his
""teammates f om every position on the
floor. Frequently he dribbled the
ball x the lenith of the hall for clean
baskets. He]' had Excelsior highly be-
wildered in -nany instances and they
generally ke it him covered by a man
or two. x Plimmer started the scor-
ing for Tliief River Falls by execut-
ing a neat ci ge after a couple minutes
of play.

This was followed by Excelsior
scoring six poinds, which only served
as a spur to thelocal boys to tighten
up, which they did in grand fashion.
Excelsior, on the other hand, didn't
loosen up to any'n oticeable degree :
however, anl demonstrated again and
again that tiey were a serious minded
lot and mesrit business, with every
move. Up t> about five minutes be-
fore the\ldse.of the first half they
lead by sevjeral points and indicated
" that they desired to hold their posi-
tion. The offensive tactics of Carlson
f and Plummet cropped out at this
stage, howiver, {and the boys from
Excelsior ipparently seemed help-
less in the face of it and plainly ahow-
, cd they wete tiring. The first half
ended with :h e score 13 all.

Louden, ExQelsior center, has go.t
a lot of basket ball in that foxy look-
ing head of: his and he proved- the
general of 3 Ikcelsior's game. It might
be said here that he was the "glass
man" of Excelsior's tactics. When he
hit the flo >r it meant a signal for
his teammates, too, to partake of its
cooling effect. It seemed highly re-
freshing to the big boy at center, as
•well as for Jthe rest' of his warriors,
who seldom [failed to sprawl out like
kittens on ;he hearth after the fash-
ion of their I leader. This Louden, of
course, is sri extremely difficult man
to reckon -ifith. In. the first place,
he appeared with a painted leg, the
aftermath cf a collision on the floor at
Crookston the night previous, and this
wounded member no doubt won him
'at least the -'sympathy of the younger
feminine spectators- on the sidelines,
if not the rriore hardened basket bal
- ; followers. What may have appeared
to be muner to some meant merely
a. rest .'to 1ne crafty . Louden. He's a
mightv likible.chap, though, and five
-' men like him would make quite a rip-
ple on th£ S waters of basket -ball.
' There is n >! department of the game
■that Louden is not conversant with
and he placed the stellar role at' the
Auditoriun- Friday night so far as Ex-
- celsior was concerned. _ .

■ But to get back to the second half
of this first' game Friday night. The
local boys ippeared on the floor with'
a grim bunch of countenances, caused,
no doubt, by the final ending of the

first half, 13 all. It was plain to see
that they did not intend that- the sec-
ond half should endthat way and start-
ed the| proceedrrrgg" by hooking ; a
cage after but ten seconds of play
Hadraih had been sent to tlje showers
and replaced by Jordan Penney,
who was in a new position at center,
with Louden towering -over him- at
least six inches.

With Carlson passing Plummer the
buck, he generally hits the basket,
Brown and Holzknecht were right and
when such I is the case, the final out-
come with!' Thief River Falls could
hardly be I called as being in doubt.
Baskets were coming the Thief River
Falls way one after the other until
they had 1 35 chalked up, with jEx-
celsior struggling valiantly to recoup
the prestige they had won during: the
first halfc'i

And so : ended the first game Fri-
day night, Excelsior, 21; Thief River
Falls) 35. !

and Frdiay at the Aaditorlam,

The Thief River Falls basket ball team
will .be seen in action against the ' Two

Minn., there to join Prof.' A. D. Wil-
son, of the University Extension Di-
vision, and it is reported he will be-
come a permanent member of the .uni-
versity extension staff. Mr. Johnson
has attracted widespread attention as
a Guernsey breeder, and it is under-

{ Second Game

The second game was largely a re-
petition! of .the first in the matter of
play and : tactics, with Thief River
Falls leading all the way. The lineup
was essentially the. same Except that
Kiland, who had suffered quite a se-
vere wrench to his shoulder in- the
game Friday night, did not appear in
uniform.: ICarlson and Plummer play-
ed their same old game, time after
time running wild around Excelsior,
delivering telling blows to their de-
fense. Thief River Falls did the
leading all the .way. During the
ond half, however, the Excelsior quint
rallied their forces near the stage,
held a 10-minute conference and came
back determined to make a last stand
to win. !"Mu'ch ado about, nothing
was the .'result of the recess . called
by Excelsior, as they did not score
but one point after their return to
play.

Just previously Hutton of the Ex-
clesior lineup, was taken out of the
game after it was reported, that he
had suffered, a broken nose when he
collided with a Thief River Falls man.
He was replaced by a little fellow

Morlan .Bishop, son of Mr. and Mrs.
J. M. Bishop, of this city, this week
resigned as examiner with the state
banking department to accept a posi-
tion as assistant cashier in the state
treasurer's office. He will assume
his new duties next Monday.

The appointment of- Mr. Bishop, who
has-been with the banking department
a year, is a recognition of. faithful
and efficient sendee in Iiis present
position. Mr. Bishop is a graduate of
the Thief River Falls high school and
the state university. He is a veteran
of the World war, .'giving two years
to army service, one year of which he
spent in France. Prior to entering the
service he taught history in the local
high school.

FLOOD DAMAGE AWARD UPHELD

Manny Hammer, well known in Thief
River, Falls, having been employed in
this city as a butcher by E. L. Rol-
land and Louis DeCremer, was found
frozen to death a week ago Saturday
at his homestead south of Williams.
He worked here two years ago for Mr.
Holland. Hammer's parents resided- at
St. Hilaire, where his father died sev-
eral years' ago, his mother being
resident of this city when she died
three years ago. The Beaudette Reg-
ion 'gives the following account of
the finding of the body:

"To be lost in the woods and to be
frozen to death within two hundred
feet of his home was the tragic fate
that overtook M. Hammer, a home-'
steader who', lived seventeen miles
souih of Williams, on Friday night
or Saturday morning. Hammer was
seei about his yard Friday morning,
butfwhen he did not show up again
by poon on Saturday his neighbors be-
alarmed, and a party consisting
of ffhos. '.Moe, John Brummer, Carl
En|om arid Emil Olson started out to
look 'for him: They had gone only
a short distance into the woods when
they came upon his dead body in the
snow, and everything pointed to the
fact that, he had become lost in the
woods and had frozen to death. His
tracks showed that he had walked
in a circle, perhaps for hours, and
that his gun, with which he evidently
had been hunting rabbits, Had been
thrown to one side when he became too
weak to carry, it.

■ "Deputy Coroner Frank .Johnson of
Baudette was notified, but the circum-
stances all pointed to death from
freezing, and it was decided not to
hold an inquest. The body
brought to Baudette, where it is being
held until word from deceased's form-
er home at Red, Lake Falls is receiv-
ed

"Deceased was about 45 years of
age and was not married. ; He had
lived alone'oriihis homestead. for sev
eral years. He was well known n.
Baudette, having worked in the millf
here." '.

The Girl's Community club will
meet Wednesday evening January 11,
at the home of Mrs. J. M. Bishop.'
All members and their friends are re-
quested to be present.

ardson was not entirely unexpected,
since he suffered a stroke two years
ago which left him in a greatly weak-

ment from active -public service at
that time.

Judge Richardson was bom at Ne-
banon, N. H., September 21, 1855,
coming west with his parents ten
years later, the family settling at
Viola, near' Rochester, Minnesota. He
attended school there arid at E.lgin,

school. ' Having a penchant for the
law, he became a student at the Uni-
versity of Iowa, Iowa City, graduat-

a classmate and schoolmate of Sen-
ator Frank B. Kellogg.

On March 25, 1885, he married Miss

soon thereafter moved to northwest- .

which they were familiar in both con-

Connell's men evidently could not be
downed. Excelsior can truthfully say
that they met the better team, which
may be (simmered down to its last
analysis -where "the best team won."
Perry Johnson officiated in his usual
manner and not a single objection was
heard to any of his decisions. Excel
sior is represented by as clean and
gentlemanly an aggregation of ath-
letes as: has ever performed at bas-
ket ball! in Thief River, Falls,; _and
when'that is the case followers of the

of wrangling and' misunderstandings.

. It was announced Saturday ■ night

that Two Harbors will appear in this

city next Thursday and Friday, Jan-
uary 12 and 13, to take on Thief River

Falls. !.
Last year's Two Harbors team was

accredited by Walter Camp, famous

sports writer, with being one of the

five best teams in the United States.

Thief River Falls stands undefeated

for the I season, but it must be taken

into consideration that they have stub-
bom resistance yet to meet up with

in Crookston and Two Harbors.

Crookston has a ■ crack organization

this year, led by Benny Sampson,

known as one of the best, basket ball

chiefs in Minnesota. It has npt been

per ceit of the money contained in
our weekly and monthly pay envelopes
and^f this is true, it is not difficult
to imagine the tremendous power they
could wield in the event that every
laborer's 'wife bought only those
goods adorned with the union label.
There has been much_good work done
in. this connection, and-the women are
guick to respondto* the appeals sent
out by our department. Without a
demand for the uriion label a large
part of the effect and influence of
organized labor is lost, and for that
reason the American Federation of
Labor is' making this branch of its
work as effective as possible," said
Mr. Manning.

notices to the various secretaries of
subordinate unions of this city con-

would address Thief River Falls work-

It cannot be said that any one

tentv They all played a brilliant game
and the crowd present evidenced then-
satisfaction at their showing.

The contest ended with Thief River
Falls at. the top, 21 to 30. Excelsior
had put forth the best they had, which
was, not enough, that's all. They had
tried out; every fonh of play with
which they were familiar in both con-
tests, but: the teamwork and speed of

downed. Excelsior can truthfully say
that they met the better team, which
may be simmered down to its last
analysis where "the best team won."

heard to any of his decisions. Excel-

that Two Harbors will appear in this
city next 1 Thursday and Friday,: Jan-

Last year's Two Harbors team was
accredited by Walter Camp, famous
sports writer, with being one of the'

Supreme Court Finds'! Farmers Can

Farmers whose lands were damaged
by floods in 1918, caused by diversion
of surface water from its natural
course, due to construction of railroad
roadbeds, can recover from the rail-
road companies, the state supreme
court holds. A verdict is affirmed in
the case of Ole Eiken against the Min-
nesota & Manitoba and the Canadian
National railway, brought in Beltrami
county. "The finding- that defendants
caused plaintiff's land to be flooded,"

a short distance into the woods iwhen
they came upon his dead body in the
snow, and everything- pointed to the
fact that he had become lost in the

tracks showed that; he had walked
in a circle, perhaps ifor hours, and
that his gun, with which he evidently
had been hunting rabbits, Had been
thrown to one side when he became too
weak to carry it. • !

"Deputy Coroner Frank Johnson of

sia, some ten or fifteen million Rus-

Anna Haines, who did relief work
in ;Russia with the Quakers under the

in ["1916*4918, and who has just re-*
turned from another year of relief
work in jMoscow which closed with a
trip back into the villages of the^Sam-
ara province, where s^e had worked
three years before and which have re-
cently been so stricken by drought,
tells heartrending (, stories and shows
sickening pictures of the misery there.
March will be the .worst month, will
it pot?"! she asked one parish priest.
"No", he answered slowly. "No, I
think not. This month (September)
we have 'the melons and the sunflower

We- are tired of giving to other peo-
ple's children. Partly, too, because
the American people, warm, and well-
fed as it is in contrast to Eastern or
even to Central Europe, is not so rich
as" it was two or three years ago. But
very largely because it" has been so
stuffed with conflicting propaganda
about Russia that it only half be-
lieves the' pitiful stories of 'famine
which come to it. There are people
who are willing to have even babies
starve unless their elders change their
form of government. But such people
are not typical of America. The Am-
erican people is as* kindhearted as
ever; but it wants to know.. In par-
ticular, it wants to know whether^the
hunger in; Russia is due to a break-
down in government which will be re-
peated year after year until" there
comes some sudden change, or to an
unusua^ and fearful drought.

That is why the report of the Rus-
sian commission of the Near East Re-
ilef, printed in part, in the Internation-
al Relations Section of The^Nation for
December 7, has such peculiar import-
ance". . It is the first comprehensive
report of an unofficial non-political
group which has had adequate oppor-
tunities to study the famine and its
causes on the spot. ' Its conclusions
cannot be charged with partisanship.!
No need here to summarize them all;
but" one set of data should be forced
into the consciousness of editorial
writers from one end of this coun-
try to the other; The rainfalKthrough
the Volga valley- in April, May, and
June of this year— th e critical months
for the~ grain crop — averaged less
than. 2.4 millimeters per month as'
against a normal rainfall (17-year
average) of 35.6 millimeters; and the
temperature averaged 12.6 degrees
Fahrenheit hotter than the 17-year
average. Such was th e drought that
burned the seedings in the soil and
caked the hard earth against the pos-
sibility of a crop. That is the rea-
son for the hunger of the Volga mil-
lions. Other causes — revolution, war,
blockade — contributed to the mass of
misery; this is fundamental. .Vernon
Kellogg of the Hoover Relief Admin-
istration tells the same story. "In
Russia," he says, "the people who
come down to the river landings and
crowd the -refugee camps are peas-
ants. In Belgium we never fe4 a
single farmer. In Poland we fed mil-
lions in the cities and industrial areas
but sent no food into the country;
in Russia we have to feed the peas-
ants, the food-producers--to the think-
ing man that tells the story.".

Here at last we have the incon-
trovertible facts. No one can any
longer plead ignorance. Political pre-
judices must be focgotten in the com-
mon need. Senator France's name
stands beside that of ex-Ambassador
Francis on the National- Committee

Counties Report

A slight increase in faxes for 1921,
to be collected in " 1922, is shown in
reports of 34 of Minnesota's 86 coun-
ties to Ray P. Chase, state auditor.
This increase is in spite of the fact
that the state taxes have been low-
est, the tax for state governmental
purposes having been eliminated. Re-
ports from Ramsey, St. Louis and oth-
er counties, which have not been re-
ceived, - may change result. Taking
all taxes into consideration, . state,
county, city, village, township and
school districts, the taxes to be col-
lected in 1922 in the 32 counties re-
porting approximate 542,000,000 as
compared with 540,000,000. a year ago.

The small rural -counties in South
ern Minnesota which have reported
show a slight decrease while the in-
creases are in Northern Minnesota.
The average tax rate for the counties
reporting, to~be collected in 1922, is
47 mills as i compared, with 42 mills a

Wild cat s/hemes of every nature

ent writing ijo the Beaudette Region
has a scheme which loolcs leasable
enough, and has financial possibilities
of sufficient proportions to appeal to
the dreamer who has visions of get-

the following cat story, minus the
wild cats:
"Dear Sir.

I have a proposition to present to
you, and : wish to ask your earnest and
careful consideration of the same, as
I- think there is an opportunity here
which comes only once in a| man's
lifetime.; I wish you would write me
by return mail the amount of stock
you will'take ;

The object of the company is to
operate a large cat ranch Ih or near
Baudettc, vhere the land can be pur-
chased cheap for this purpose.

To start with we will collect, say
one million cats. .Each cat will aver-
age twelve kittens per year. The skin
will runifrom 10c for \vhite 1 b'nes and
75effor pure black. This will give lis
twelve million skins a year to sell at
an average of 30c each, making our
revenue jabout $10,000 per day gross.

A man can skin fifty cats a day
after, a little practice and such a man
can be Hired for two dollars per day.

High School Boys, Employed
Boys, Y. M. C. A. 1 Mem-
bers Eligible ; ■ .

An older boys' conference j is to be
held January 13, 14 and 15J at Vir-
ginia. All boys who are sixteen years
of age, or Sophomores in hign,school,
or are employed, are eligible to at-
tend providing they come in the spirit
of the conference and believe in its''
purpose. Boys from high schools^Y.
M. C. A.s, Sunday schools and church-
es, or boys who are working are cor-,
dially invited. The purpose of the
conference is to challenge the older
boys to strong Christian living, and.
to help them in Christian service
through offering plans and. methods of
work in different organizations.

It would be a fine thing if some-
one from Thief River Falls might at-
tend this conference. Since the high,
school has no way of financing the
expenses of representatives, the school
authorities would be very glad to
have any parent or organization^ who
can afford it notify them in case they
are willing to send either their own
son or someone else's son, or both, as
representatives to the conference.
This would be a fine outing Jor some
boy and it would as well be of. bene-
fit to the rest of the boys to whom
reports would be brought back by the
delegates.

After smoking your first Spur, you might
say "just right," ''immense" or "great" —
means the same thing. Means : "There was
room at the top for a cigarette that can refresh
a tired and much tried taste. And Spur's that
cigarette." !

In the new Spur blend you find : ■
The richness of the full-bodied Oriental leaf
tempered by the mildness and fragrance of
fcurley and other choice home-grown tobaccos.
It's a happy blend that brings out to the full •
that pood tobacco taste. .

And what's more ! Satiny imported paper,
crimped, not pasted — makes an easierrdrawing,

liness of generosity as he contemplated j
the easy money that murder was to :
bring him, !he had heaped upon h e r
the munificent gift of *25 as he started ,
blithely off,! whistling a merry tune
which was the nenreBt to a clean thing:
that rose out of his polluted and eor- ,
rupted heart; started ofT for his Christ-
mas celebration, his mind, made, up to
hang upon 'the Christmas tree of his
little family the hideous Bkeleton of
his rotted life.

He had come sneaking, back to his
home the very day after the murder,
to change Ills clothes, and hang upon
a nail the b'lood-stalned coat that was
to be the final proof of his guilt; then
hurried off again to do the one. good,
unpremeditated thing of IiIb recent life
—to walk Into the trap that should
take him forever out of the home he
had dishonored, and the lives that he
had blighted.

It is a .tragic thing to be robbed of
treasures we have had, but there - is
left the memory of possession that Is
little less beautiful than the posses-
sion Itself. JBut to be robbed of that
which one never had, to lose dreams
before the dream Is born, to dwell In
silence ere ever song baa dwelt upon
the lips— that Is the Great Tragedy—,
this Is the JdeathleBS death thnt has
fallen upon -this poor woman..

But the saddest — and the happiest —
thing in thi^ woman's life must be the
fact that this man's crime is to her a
negative thing. It prevents the pos-
sibility of any realization of her life :
of -any thing, she might have hoped for. ■
It does not shadow any memory of
,exultant and exalting Joy. It does' not
kill any dream; It merely confirms n
constant fear.

The luckiest day in her unhappy life
was that which took the man forever
from her. Of no woman can a more
terrible and 1 bitter and hopeless thing
be said. S

If anywhere In this world during I
this season 'of tender holiday recollec-;
tlon Is a home that should appeal to
every loving; human heart; If anywhere
Is- a woman IwhoBe dumb agony -should]
win the ten'derest sympathy and help
of human beings — here In Winnebago
Is this home and this woman.

So after all, this Is the terrible thing
that McDonongh has done — this tomb;
which he has built for those be should;
have loved and protected. The mur-
derer's* immediate' victim had hls-
chance at life; and he suffered but a
moment. This woman, these-, bablea,
were stricken before life had given
them anything, and they will suffer
forever. Before any bar of Judgment,
human or ■ Divine, this brute could
more easily! answer for the murder of
Kelley than for the slaughter of hl_
own innocents.

Here in this home where dilapidated'
furniture worth ' a few dollars elo-f
quently attests the character of this
man's human affection — Is the truest
symbol of his depraved soul, and the|
most perfect expression of how terrl-;
ble his crime was.

Above the hue and cry of the Law
as it follows the murderer's trail*
above the clamor of ^Tlghjgous f , wrath
that arises 'from every* clean heart In
denunciation of thlH crime, above the
arrest,' the trial, the conviction, above
the Imprisoning grey walls that will
give McDonough the only fit home he
ever "had, rises; and will forever rise,
the one picture, the one sound that
constitute the genuine symbol of his
deed in all its bratnlity, depravity and
viciousnesB-f-the picture of the silent
woman, ricking herself to and fro, In
a broken phalr as she wafts, for life
to strike again — and the sound of In-
nocent laughter and cooing "and bub-
bling from; a baby's lips, as in help-
less Joy It ploys with shadows on the
bed, unknowing that there "Is anything
In the' world but sunshine and muslo.

XMAS AT OjAKLAND PARK SAN-
AXORIUM

(Contributed)

The Christmas and New Year holi-
days at the Oakland Park Sanatorium
were very happy ones for 'the patients.
The festivities seemed to begin when
they came down for supper Christmas
eve. and found the tables and dining
room beautifully decorated by che able
hands of Miss Knudson and her help-
ers, Miss Malm, Miss" Stradtnian and
Miss Nomeland.

Later in the evening they all gath-
ered in the reception room to admire
the Christmas tree and to receive all
the mysterious packages which were
j piled high on a table near the tree.
It was found that all the patients had
been remembered by both friends and
relatives.

A great many toys were in evidence
and much fun was derived from cag-
ing the crazy bugs, blo%ying horns;
watching climbing monkeys spinning
tops, admiring dolls, etc.

Nuts, candy and apples were eaten
in great quantities by all, no one
seeming to think 1 of consequences in
the least

Nine o'clock, the usual bed time
hour passed hy unnoticed and the pa-
tients, and nurses enjoyed themselves
still nearly midnight. When they fin-
ally went to ned, they all agreed they
had had a wonderful evening.
: There were also a great many more
pleasures in store for them before the
Christmas season was over and to the
following people, Miss Hamre, Miss
Quale, Miss Gladys Anderson and the
itisses Tandberg who entertained
them with music and singing and left
boxes of lovely candy and gifts; Miss
Clauson who^gave each one of the
patients a big box of her homemade
candyj Rev. Kreidt and the young
ladies who came with him.to sing; the
Presbyterian young people who enter-
tained so well with song and music;
Dr. Milan, the nurses and all others
who helped to make it a cheerful
Christmas, do they extend their most
heartfelt thanks. . >

The patients had most likely look
ed forward to a lonely Christmas away
from home and friends, but they were
surprised to find when it was all over
that there had been no y>om for
homesickness or the dreaded blues.

The Saddest Feature

for sli<5 is out}
diizod before
q tided to th<
sionment, one
brutal deed

THE THIEF RIVER PALLS TRIBUNE

(WIXNEBAOO ENTERPRISE)

In inuny \vi ys the saddest feature
of the Kelley murder on»e Ih to be
found in a Itti le house in Winnebago;
where a 19-year-old pirl, ' hearing: the
black Hears ! of tragic life, watches
above two bill ies, whose laughter hut
serves to malt" more bitter to her the
memories that have culminated in the
arrest of her husband for murder.

No one could stand within this home
without being overwhelmed with Bad"
ness and with u sympathy that turns
to bitterness a rainst the cruelty of the
man who wije'kcd this girl's life be-
ever she laid a chance to live.
Looking uixvn.thi* sad-faced child —
a child — as she stands
i he blow that has been
other blows of disillu-
feels suddenly thnt the
sited ti]ion poor Frank
Kelley vrus icrhaps less vicious than
the fate visited upon this forlorn and
helpless wonai; and one feels n more
for this brute for what
:o his family than for
> the victim of his bui-
ld deliberately he killed

perfect hatred
he has done
what he did
let. duickly
tlio man who lecepted him as a part-
ner. Slowlj , nnd with fiendish un-
concern he k iilcd the hopes of his
young wife, ribbed her of every op
port unity of happiness, starved her
body with il * selfishness, made h L "r
motherhood a slavery, and crowned it
nil with the a -t that leaves her under
the shadow of an eternal memory of
Infamy, and! towered his helpless ba-
bies with a heritage of shame.

She never bore the nnme of the

she war. married to. Deceiving her ip
this, as In ertry other thing, he mar-
ried her under an assumed name, tell-
ing iier tha le was just; out of the

United States
served during
that during
service for hi

ho was a croo

she" ever me iilm,

navy, wftere lie had

the war. She never knew

tl le years of his alleged

country, he had been

an Inmate of i state prison, and that

It and a jail-bird before

h ishand was calmly tell -
of his crime to the aa-
tne. Minneapolis Jail, the
and dazed in the little
home that Is a mockery of every Idea
of home, exci pt for the presence In
It of tho Iiolln iSH of motherhood. And
a baby less than two
,-ks cooing and laughing
s nothing In the world
but love andjj'iy, while tho older child,
a boy less tlian two years, toddled
about and shy y made friends with the
Looi Ing upon these babies,
beautiful, healthy and
happy, winson e, one wondered at the

While the
ing the story
thorltles In
wife sat silent

upon the bad
months old
as If there wi

.i t

visitors,

both of them

depravity of
could not be
fidelity by tb

lips; no tears
was beyond th

of his cnlloui
gations of u.b
fitted in with
of this little

the man whose heart
chained to honor and
little clutching fingers
of helpless chi dren who were his own.
'So word of <omplaint came from her
fell from her eyes; Bhe
i > trivialities of weeping.
Life had alreaiy drained her -of tears,
and of resenti nents, before this final
i jon her. Suffering and
deprivation hi d sapped whatever of.
hope there ha 1 been budding In her
girlhood, and eft her old with misery
and accepted sorrow before she hail
even tasted of ' lire's sweetness. It was
"with h eras U reiterated blows of fate
hud left her '.Insensible to added pain.
Looking aro md the hare room one
felt a fierce a id rising wrath against
the man. Her* was every evidence
disregard of the obli-
ijusband and father. Atl
the frail, starved 'body
woman.

Out of his cuttings he bud for some
time made liei an allowance of three
dollars a wet k upon which to feed
and clothe the entlro family. He had
left her in Fafrmont a week ago with
so that she must beg
charity for sustenance for her babies
and herself. : Then In a Budden prince-

Hness of generosity as he contemplated
the easy money that murder was to"
bring him, )he had heaped upon h B r
the munificent gift of *25 as he started
blithely! off,; whistling a merry tune
which was the nearest to a clean thing
that. rose out of his polluted and cor-
rupted heart; started oft" for his Christ-
mas celebration, his mind made up to
hang upon the Christmas tree of his
little family the hideous skeleton . of
his rotted life.
He had come sneaking back to his

; home the very day after the murder.

. to change his clothes, and hang upon

i a nail the blood-stained coat that was
to he the final proof of his guilt; then
hurried off again to do tho one good,
unpremeditated thing of his recent life
—to walk Into the trap that should 1
take him forever out of the home he
had dishonored, and the lives thu* he
had blighted. J

It Is a tragic thing to he robbed of
treasures we have had, but there ■ is
left the memory of possession that Is
little less beautiful than tho posses-
sion itself. But to be robbed of that
which one never had, to lose dreams
before the dream Is born, to dwell in
silence ere ever song has dwelt upon
tho lips— that Is the Great Tragedy—
this is the i deathless death that has

: fallen upon ;this poor woman.

But the saddest— and the happiest —
thing In this woman's life must he the
fact tha't this man's crime Is to her a
negntlve thing. It prevents the pos-
sibility of any realization of her life
of any thing! she might have hoped for.
It does not' shadow any memory of
exultant and exalting Joy. It docs not
kill any dream; It merely confirms u
constant fear.

The luckiest day In her unhappy life
was that which took the man forever
from her. Of no woman cun a more
terrible and ', bitter and hopeless thing
be said.

If anywhere In this world during
this season of tender holiday recollec-
tion is a home that should appeal to
every loving | human heart; if nnywhero
Is a woman who Be dumb agony should
win the tenderest sympathy and help
of human beings — here in Winnebago
Is this home; and this woman.

So after all, this is the terrible thing
that McDonough has done—this tomb -
which he has built for those he should
have loved and protected. The mur-
derer's Immediate victim bad his \
chance at life; and he suffered but a
moment. This woman, these babies,
were stricken before life had given
them anything, and they will suffer
forever. Before any bar of Judgment,
human or .Divine, this brute could .
more easily [answer for the murder of
Kelley than 1 for the slaughter of his
own Innocents. -

Here In this home 'where dilapidated

- furniture worth a few dollars elo-
quently attests the character of this
man's human affection — Is the truest'
symbol of his depraved soul, and the
most perfect expression of how terri-
ble his crime was.

Above the hue and cry of the Law
as it follows the murderer's trail;
above the clamor of rglghteoTiB wyath.
that arises from every' clean heart In
denunciation of this crime, above the
arrest, the trial, the conviction, above;
the Imprisoning grey walls 'that will'
give "McDonough the only fit home he
ever had, rises, and will forever rlBe,
the one picture, the one sound that
constitute the genuine symbol of his
deed In all Its brutalfty, depravity and
viclousness— the picture of the silent'
woman, rocking herself to and fro. In
a broken chair as she waits for life;
tp Btrlke again — and the sound of In-
nocent laughter and cooing and bub-
bling from a baby's lips, ns in help-.
less joy It plays with Whaflows on the;
bed, unknowing that there Is anything
In the world but sunshine and muslo.

XMAS AT OAKLAND PARK SAN-
ATORIUM

(Contributed)
' The Christmas and New Year holi-
days at the Oakland Park Sanatorium
were very happy ones for the patients,
The festivities seemed to begin when
they came down for supper Christmas
eve. and found the tables and dining
room beautifully decorated by che able
hands of Miss Knudson and her help
ers, Miss Malm, Miss Stradtman and
Miss Nomeland.

Later in the evening they all gath
ered in the reception room to admire
the Christmas tree and to receive all
the mysterious packages which were

! piled high on a table near the tree.

;It was found that all the patients had

jbeen remembered by both friends and

| relatives.

A great many toys were in evidence

'and much fun was derived from cag-

jing the crazy bugs, blowing horns,

'watching, climbing monkeys spinning

j tops, admiring dolls, etc.

Nuts, candy and apples were eaten
in great quantities by all, no one

j seeming to think of consequences in

I the least - !

Nine o'clock,, the usual bed time

ihour passed by 'unnoticed and the pa-
tients, and nurses enjoyed themselves
still nearly midnight. When they fin-
ally went to bed, they all agreed they
had had a wonderful evening.

There were also a great many more
pleasures in store for them before the
Christmas season was over and to the
following people, Miss Hamre, ' Miss
Quale, Miss Gladys Anderson and the
Misses Tandberg who entertained
them with music and singing and left
boxes of lovely candy and gifts; Miss
Clauson who gave each one of the
patients a big box of her homemade
candy* Rev. Kreidt and the young
ladies who came withThim to sing; the
Presbyterian young people who enter-
tained so well with song and music;
Dr. Milan, the nurses and all others
who helped to make it a cheerful
Christmas, do they extend their most
heartfelt thanks. '

The patients had most likely look-
ed forward to a lonely Christmas away
from home and friends, but they were
surprised to find when it was all over
that there had been no npom for
homesickness or the dreaded blues.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-j-The American farmer never strikes.
Parac oxically, he is on strike now.

's a strike that he has

It's nb riddle at all.

The

not "called," that he is against, that has been

the farmer buying again and reurn
prosperity not only to him but to all
business and all workingmen?

That's a question that must be an-
swered . during the next few months.

From all I can hear down here in
Washington they are going to! do
something. Just what, it is hard to
say at this writing.
Watch 'em !

farmer's strike is a buying strike, and he does
for the plain, simple reason that he can't.

because the more than THIRTEEN MILLION farming families
in the United States cannot buy, the business of the whole country is suf-
fering.

What's going to be done about it?

Well, the great financiers of the country are beginning to see that the
farmer nust have money so that he can go to the stores and the factories,
and big dealers and buy goods. They are; beginning to see that there will
be no prosperity for themselves arid for manufacturers and business men
generally until the members |of those THIRTEEN MILLION families
can buy the necessities, and more. They hre beginning to wake up to the
fact that closed factories and idle w.orkingmen in the cities are only an effect
of the inability of the farming folks to buy] the products of shops and of all
mechanical labor.

TO FINDTHE WAY OUT. -

armer is on a forced buying

strike, >ut lie never strikes | against
work. He is always producing — al-
ways; — \ear in and year our, good
times o: bad, good weather :or bad
even 'though he knows that he wi.
lose mo: ley on his crops.

This winter he is losing! FIVE
BILLIONS OF DOLLARS on the
1921 -things he produced in toil and
sweat.

THFj PURCHASING VALUE
OF Hl|S DOLLAR IS ONLY 38
CENTS.

He nust spend $2.59 for the ne-
cessities he bought in 1913 for $1,
or 159 jer cent more. ,

The "ear before the war he got 70
cents a bushel for his corn ; inow he
gets about 40 cents. But4— AND
HERE S THE BRUTAL RUB—
before the war he paid $5.75 a ton
.'for his coal (on the average). This
winter Ine pays about $10.50 a ton.

So the purchasing value in coal , of
the 40 cents he gets this winter for
his corn, is only about 21 or 22 cents.

Before the war, the farmer got
$7.60 per hundred pounds for his
hogs; now he gets about $7.30. For
a wagon to haul the hogs to the rail-
roadi he paid $77 in 1913 — and here
is that dirty rub again — now he pays
$145 to $150 for the same wagon!

The cotton farmer, it is true, gets
$34;for a hundred pounds of cotton,
where he got $26 before the witf.
But i the majority of cotton growers
are small farmers raising only a few
■bales, and it takes a huge pile of that
light, fluffy stuff to make 100 pounds.
How much good does the $8 raise do
him ] when he has to pay about $75
MORE for his wagon than he did
before the war — must pay out almost
his total profit on a thousand pounds
of that same light, fluffy stuff?

I could cite instance after instance
like these— it works on almost every-
thing that the farmer produces. and
buj'S.

Look at- the table that accompanies
this jarticle. That tells the story in
figures.

Then look at the picture and see
what the farmer does when it comes
to working and sweating to produce
the necessities for a hundred millions
of people.

Now, what is your Congress going
to do to change the situation? What
is the country going to do to start

State Beavers

State Supervises

When
and

Abov. t 20 years ago two

beavers

were i laced in the Minnesota state
park, a; Itasca by .the state with the
idea of starting a beaver colony there
and sir ce that time the little fur bear-
ing animals have multiplied until they
have spread to all parts of this section
and in many places have become nuis-
ances. 1 In some places they are doing
so mi ich damage that it has been
many jermits have been issued dur-
found lecessary to trap them and
ing th. past few months by Game
Warden John Cline of this city,

lermits

been iisued except where they are

beaver have

actually doing damage such as flood-
ing meadows, farm lands or roads and
when permits are issued they are is-
sued to resident farmers.

In the vicinity of Northome great
dams have been built which force
water back on farm lands and it has
been found necessary to trap beaver
there to protect the farmers. In the
vicinity of Wilton streams have been
dammed in such a manner that roads
are flooded.

Permits to trap beaver are issued
after the premises have been investi-
gated by the game warden or com-
missioner and it is found that damage
is actually being done: "The person to
whom the permit is granted pays a
fee of §1 and when beavers are trap/
ped the person trapping them must
pay | a bounty of $3 for each animal
to the state. The hides are then stamp-
ped by the game warden and may then
be sold. Beaver hides are now selling
at from ?25 to 540 each, so- that in
places where the animals are/numer-
ous trapping is a profitable' occupa-
tion! /

During the past few weeks permits
to trap beavers have been issued to
the [following: Henry '/Anderson, a
farmer who lives near Northome and
who; will trap in Vicker's creek; John
Vanjiouse, who lives near Kelliher;
A. J. Porter, who has been given a

u _ .'■-./:■-

permit to trap, 30 beavers in Plum
creek near Northome; W. T. Angell,
who has been granted a permit to trap
all beavers in Section 11 near Alida,
where hay meadows are being flood-
ed; JEdward "Phelps who lives onjthe
star route southwest of Bemidji jhas
been granted a permit to trap beavers
in Henepin creek and W. A. Murphy
who lives near Wilton has been -grant-
ed a permit to trap beavers in Section
S2-147-34, where.they have been flood
ing. roads. i

Persons trapping beavers must fur-
nish a bond in the amount of $500 to
abide by the law in every respect and
they can trap only where damage' is
being done.

Not only is beaver trapping popular
in this' part of the state this year, but
settlers throughout the north are
trapping all kinds of fur bearing Ani-
mals and siriee the opening of the
trapping season County Auditor A. D.
Johnson of this city, has issued 325
trapping licenses.

Fishing is also claiming the atten-
tion of many sportsmen and 125 net-
ting licenses have been issued as well
as 91 fish, house licenses and a num-
ber of non-resident licenses.

A colony of beavers has been dis-
covered near Island Lake which is'be-
lieved to be the farthest north that
the Lake Itasca beavers have traveled.

Aged only ten, Rose Reeve, of Lon-
don, Ontario, has passed examinations
qualifying her to enter the University.

During a dense London fog there is
as much as 200 tons of soot suspended
In the air overhead. ,

Some person has been tampering with
the-beayer house there and the place
is now being closely watched by Game
Warden Cline. The beavers which are
found in the vicinity of Northome are
believed to have come from the Rainy
Lake territory. — Bemidji Sentinel.

When Is Best
Potato Market?

Professor Wilson Discusses

Question of Best Time

to Sell Potatoes

A Consistent Policy of Sel-
ling' Either Fall or.
Spring is Advised

Prof. A. D. Wilson, writing to a
subscriber in tht Farmer, 'in answer
to the question, "Should I sell my po-
tatoes now or store them T If I store
them, how long should I hold them?"
says:

This question is often asked but
seldom answered, because no one can
be very sure of his answer, and one
who dislikes to mislead others will
hesitate to give advice on such ques-
tions. Even" experienced potato buy-
ers quite often guess wrong and lose
considerable money either by buying
when they should not or by not buy-
ing when they should.

"Potatoes differ from most of the
other ' important farm products such
as grain, meat, cotton, etc., because
potatoes must all be used before the
next crop is. available; none can be
carried over, except a-yery negligible
amount that is converted into ' starch
or potato flour. Likewise, import.'
and exports of potatoes are very
small because-bf their bulk. So, prac-
tically speaking, the whole of the
United States crop is used in the
United States, and our population
must depend on what is grown here.

"Normally we consume in the Unit-
ed States between 3.5 bushels and 3.8
bushels per capita. A study of the
prices for December 1 each year and
for May 1 the following year inr
dicates that each year when produc-
tion fell below 3.5 bushels per capita
the price was lower in December than
the following May, and likewise that
each year when production exceeded
3.8 bushels per capita the price was
higher in December than the follow
ing May.

"Production in the United States
this year (1921) is about 3.2 bushels
per capita. If the usual thing happens,'
the price should be higher next
spring. We do not know whether this
will be the case or not. The present
industrial depression, with many peo-
ple out of work and a general ten-
dency to economize, may prevent the
price of potatoes from going as hiffh
as the^ supply would now indicate.
Likewise, a generous supply of most
other' farm products accompanied' by*
low prices may. have a similar effect.

'As to the question, when to sell if
you store your' potatoes, we are also
unable to answer that intelligently;
hence we will not answer it, but
publish a table prepared by W. L.
Cavert of the Minnesota) Agricultural
college.

"Average price of potatoes per cwt.
on the first of the month for ten
years, 1909 to 1918, inclusive:

"August '. ; .'..' ....$1.28

September 1.10

October! -'- ; 1.00

November 1.00

December 1.00

January 1.05

February 1.13

March .... 1.18

April 1.17

May , 1.30

June _....; 1.28

July 1 1.32

"This shows, the average farm price
of potatoes in Minnesota On. the first
of each- month fdr the ten years 1909
to 1918 as reported hy the United
States Department of Agriculture.

'It is evident from the above table
that those who held; over potatoes
until May 5 got' just about enough on
the average over the fall priee to pay
for shrinkage, interest on investment,
and storage. The table also indicates
that it does not make much difference
whether one sells every year in the
fall or holds over every year. If one
wishes to gamble and can guess right,
he will surely - make some money.
Few are able to do this. Personally
we think the conservative thing" to do
is to decide .upon ^ome plan and stick
to it, that is, market in the fall of
every year or else in the spring of
every year. Probably a plan that will
pay as well, both in money and in
satisfaction, is to sell half the crop
in the fall and half in the spring."

FINDS SMALL FORTUNE
. It isn't often that one finds a small
"fortune but occasionally such is the
case, says the Jeffers Review. A
Mr. Falk, who lives southeast of
Lamberton on the road due north of
Jeffers about ten days ago found $500
in a bed tick. About eleven years ago,
so the story goes Mrs. Falk went in-
sane and hid $500 somewhere about
the premises, but . no one was ever
able to -find it though it was searched
for weeks. And about ten ,days 'ago
Mr. Falk had the occasion to throw
away an old mattress that had been
in the house for a long time, ' and,
imagine -bis surprise to find the $500.
No doubt the find at this time is quite
acceptable. j " '

Will Reward Fi

[o] Icjopi \o\ icndizp l \o\

NE of the leading national weeklies predicts that Competition

will be the big word In industry in 1922. Production has ex-

e===i ceeded consumption in every line. It will be a buyers' market

— those who wish to sell will have to hustle for business. The vigorous,-)the alert, the'selfassertive,
THE FIGHTER, will emerge stronger. The weak, the unambitious, the timid, the unaggres-
sive— well, some of them will not be doinj^business ayear from now.

Such is 1 922— as The Tribune sees it!

The business men of Thief River Falls are Fighters. They will offer better values and ,
better service than the other fellow. Like honest men, as they are, they will take you into their
confidence— they will advertise their wares — quality and price — in the columns of this paper from t
week to week, in order that people round about may know, as they themselves know, that they are
giving bigger and better values than the average run of merchants.

i During the past year many people, some of them living far from Thief River Falls, have
learned by reading advertising in this paper and coming here to buy, that Thief River Falls is the
best trading point in this section. More will learn that in 1 922. The advertising of local busi-
ness interests in a fair and truthful way is as much a part of the service which this newspaper gives,
as recording the passing events of the community and commenting on the things that are transpiring
from week to week. Those who don't read the advertisements are missing an important part of
the paper; Those who don't trade at Thief River Falls are passing up an opportunity.

At Thursday's noon meeting-of the
Commercial club, the most important
proceeding was the passage of a res-
olution endorsing the present agricul-
tural bloc in congress. Mayor Brat-
rud presented the resolution, which
was championed by W. J. Brown, who
thoroughly explained, the object of the
same. He stated that no politics or
partisanship was involved in the res-
olution, which was simply presented
for the 'purpose of expressing the
friendly attitude of the Commercial
club with the most friendly and ag-
gressive organization now dealing
with thp problems of the farmer. Fol-
lowing jthe remarks of Mr. Brown the
club unanimously gave its endorse-
ment tjo the resolution, which read;
as follows:

"Whereas the farming interests of
the United States are the keystone of
the wealth' and prosperity of the coun-
try, and the unwarranted decline in
the price of farm products has been
such that the return of the industry
of the farmer is not sufficient to pay
the cost of raising and marketing
farm products, i

And Whereas the manufacturing in-
terests, the farm machinery combin-
ation, and the steel trust which have
furnished material for, or have manu-
factured the articles necessary for the
farmer to buy, have-,all been in secret
combination to raise and maintain an
exhorbitant price for those articles,.
And Whereas the packing house
combination and the big exporting
grain interests have each likewise
secretly combined to depress the price
of the farm products,

And Whereas in the past the agri-
cultural interests themselves have
never succeeded in combining or in
entering into any combination tending
to maintain at a proper level the pro-
duct of the farm. On account of the
varied nature of farming, any com-
bination organized for the purpose of
maintaining a fair price of farm pro-
ducts or bettering farm conditions
must be by means of a combination
of the representatives of the farming
interests and not . of the individual
farmer,

And Whereas there has been form-
ed, and is now openly functioning, in
the congress, a loose alliance of mem-
bers of both houses representing an
agricultural constituency or otherwise
interested in the upbuilding of agri-
cultural pursuits, which alliance is
termed "The Agricultural Bloc,"

And Whereas the purpose of the
said "Agricultural Bloc" is avowed
and open and is for the purpose of
enforcing proper legislation in; the in-
terest of the farmer and the-'farming
interests, and thus of the"- Country at
large. -.;

Now Therefore Be It Resolved by
the Commercial club of the city of
Thief River Falls', that we unhesitat-
ingly and enthusiastically apprpve of
the organization of "The Agricultural
Bloc" and of its purposes and dbjects,
and we urge upon our representatives
in congress to co-operate therewith,
And Be It Further eRsolved^That
copy of these resolutions be/'for-
warded to each of our congressmen in
Washington." (

Dr. Froelich suggested that tdie of-
fice of the Farm Bureau be made a
clearing house for unemployed men,
all persons needing employment reg-
istering at that office in order that
anyone needing help may secure quick
action.
The city's handling of electrical-

goods and supplies, 'wiring, etc., was
discussed from the standpoint of giv-
ing a clear field in that line to in-
dividual business houses/Mayor Brat-
rud explained that the city charged
the usual profits on all its goods and
could not be- considered an unfair
competitor. No definite action was
taken.

Announcement was made' that. the
city water rates would be considered
at the next meeting of the club— next
Thursday.

Noting tie tremendous progress
made by the dairy industry of Min-
nesota, and with unbounded faith in

ed to cows, c over, corn and potatoes,

the ideal time to give impetus to -the
cow industry, for at this time foun-
dation stock may be purchased at a
fraction of the cost which prevailed
a few years ago.

As outlined in their announcement
in another column, the bank will ap-
point a committee of experienced
dairymen .who will buy only grade

Tuesday, set apart the! cows of the best quality that can be
had for. the money. Good cows, it
is estimated, may now be had at from
$60 to $125, or an average price of
about $100 for each animal. At this
figure, 100 cows will be added to the
herds of Pennington county.

Iti means that anywhere from

sum of $10,000 to be used in the pur-
chase of high-grade dairy cows for the
farmers of tiis section. The dairy
cows will be purchased by a compe-
tent committee and sold to farmers at

A suitable questionaire, reciting

Tribune understands the matter,

In the hun ble opinion of this news-
paper, the progressive action of the
First and Pec pies bank is the first rift
of light on the horizon of better times
coming since the declining prices fol-
lowing the World war plunged agri-
culture into i depression such as this
country has never before experienced

In large measure, the action of the
bank was prompted by observations
made during this period of depression
— namely th it only those who have
stuck to dai ying, who have milked

viewed in the perspective of the fu-

local farming industry which has
flourished when other things failed —
it means encouragemnt to the farmer
who despairs of the future; it means
more monthly cream checks, and con-
sequent benefit to the entire commun
ity. ^

The idea of thus lending its as-
sistance to the purchase of cows was
suggested to the board by Vice-Presi-
dent H. S. Dahlen, who in 1914
sponsored ! a similar venture by trie
bank. Mr. Dahlert has never ceased
to regard jthe dairy cow as the sheet

A. H. Akre is Again Named

City Clerk- and H. 0.

Chommie Citv Atty.

The first meeting of the City Coun-
cil of Thief River Falls for 1922 was
held Tuesday evening and all the old
appointees wer e re-elected to their
old positions. H. A. Brumund will
serve for two more years as presi-
dent of the body and Carl Froseth
was re-elected to succeed himself as
vice-chairman.

A. H. Akre's re-appointment as city
clerk was moved by Councilman O. L.
Ihle, which was carried without dis-
sent. P. G. Peterson, assistant clerk;
H O. Chommie, city attorney; O. L.
Legvold, superintendent of the water
and light department; E. (J. Cook,
custodian of the Auditorium; Martin
H. Owen, incinerator superintendent,
and Henry Froseth,°manager of Au-
ditorium. Dr. O. F. Mellby was nam-
ed city physician.

Mayor John Bratrud read his bi-
ennial statement to the members, in
which he offered various suggestions
for needed improvements which he
hoped the city council would see fit
to soon bring into effect and dwelt on'
other aspects of the welfare of the

but- of this matter you are (the best
judges. \ '

I- am strongly of the opinion that
a- city scales should b e installed; It
has been proven in a number of towns
in this section that such scales are
self-supporting and provide great sat-
isfaction to the public. With the of-
fice of city »weighmaster . might be
combined a municipal employment of-
fice. This has proven a great con-
venience and a valuable aid in pre-
venting unemployment in other cities
of this size. ' = ■

One of the serious problems facing
the city at this time is the future of
the electric light system. The change
from the direct; to an alernating cur-
rent must b e made in the near future,
both in the interest of economy and
efficiency. The contract with the
power dam owners is also nearing
termination and plans for the future
will have to be considered. The only
recommendation on my part possible
at this time is that the council at-
tempt to secure an expression of
view and preference from the .people
of the city and be guided largely by
such expression. ;

I strongly urge upon you the nec-
essity of ascertaining the cost of op-
eration of our city water and light
department. The accessory and elec-
tric utensil department of the city
should show a yearly profit and the
accounts of this department should be
separately shown. I recommend a
monthly invoice] of electrical supplies
and accessories and that a system of
bookkeeping be installed to show the
monthly profit or loss from this de-
partment.

Within a very short time it will be
necessary that something in the way
of renovation and repair be under-
taken on the Auditorium interior., Un-
less something is done towards the
upkeep of the building its value will
deteriorate very rapidly. More^atten-
towards

city that our bourse must be guided,
In congratulate you, as councilmen,
upon the record you have made and
beg- leave to submit a few suggestions
which I Hope you will find of suffic-
ient importance to merit your consid-
eration during the coming term.

It is probably unnecessary for me
to dwell upon the necessity for strict
economy, in the administration of the
city's affairs. While conditions in
Thief River Falls, as compared with
other places in the country are very
good, yet the situation everywhere is
such as demands the very closest
scrutiny of public expenditures. The
aim should be the holding down of
the city's running expenses in every
possible way to the end that taxes be
made as light as possible.
The first paving contract

larly express my appreciation for. the
manner in which the council has co-
operated with the park board and the
library board at all times. A nucleus
for a park system has been secured
at a very small outlay and the prop-

Gentlemen, I wish to thank you for
the willingness you have at all times
shown to embrace any suggestions for
the common good, and for the cheer-
fUl"co-operation you have at all times
extended me. It is my earnest\hope
that these pleasant relations may
continue, as in that way only can we
work effectively together for the good
of the community. Ours is a posi-
tion of trust, and to us the people
look as the instruments for carrying
out their wishes! The closer we get
to the viewpoint and the more near-
ly we are able to conform to their
wishes, the better we will be able to
serve them and the more creditable
will be our records as public serv-
ants.

Respectfully,
. JOHN BRATRUD, Mayor.

made in the board of directors, the
most important being the election to

entered ient assistant cashier of the bank

and I am of the opinion that no one'bert Lonson, cashier, to replace ram
would now wish the work undone. Engelstad, John Morgan to replace M.
As concerns the future, I would urgeJT. McFarland, Frew W. Johnson to re-
that no further undertaking along place L. A. Lampert.. In other re-

Need For School

Tomorrow will be tag 'day for the
collection of funds for the blind —
helping them help themselves. The
Woman's League, with Mrs. A. Sa'p-
ero in charge, has charge of the
drive, and young ladies will be sta-
tioned at ali prominent corners in the
city with collection boxes. It is a
worthy cause and one which our citi-
zens would do well to give their aid to,
inasmuch as all moneys collected will
go into a fund for the establishment
of schools and institutions. V

HELP THE BLIND TO HELP THEM
! SELVES i

If I were stricken blind, what
would I do? Think it over.

Could I follow my present occupa-
tion? Probably not.

Where could I go to learn to be-
come self supporting? If over 21
years old, no such place exists in Min-
nesota. .

It would be a pretty rough road
to travel — wouldn't it ?

Sixteen hundred blind men and wo-
men of adult age in Minnesota, accord-
ing to the last U. S. census report,
have had to face these questions alone
in the darkness. Twelve hundred of
them lost their sight after they reach-
ed maturity. How pitifully they have
failed to solve the .problem of exist-
ence is strikingly shown by the fact
that but slightly over two per cent
are self supporting. To these people
the tragedy of the "light that failed"
is approached only by the tragedy of
making a living— by such pititful
means as you have often seen employ-
ed, a reproach to modern civilization.
As a climax to his human tragedy,
many of these unfortunates are fur-
ther disabled by the deafness, loss of
speech and bodily infirmities.

And remember that these blind men
and women seek only, an opportunity
to help themselves. It is the plain
duty of every thinking person to help
lighten : their dreary road.

Two Harbors Wins
From Local Team

Defeat Local Aggregation

at Basket Ball Last

Night at Auditorium

Record Crowd Turns Out to

See State Champions

Win, Score 19 to 28

In a game, almost devoid of sen-
sational and fancy basket ball but,
packed with speed and wonderful'
teamwork on the part of Two Har-.
bors, and with the Thief River Falls
five fighting doggedly to cut down a
lead of 12 points run up during the
first half of the game, the fast Two
Harbors all-star .quint won from
Coach Connell's men last night by a
score of 28 to 19.

A game that commenced with both
teams playing a rather slow and safe
form of attack, developed into a con-
test vyhere perfect liason and faultless
teamwork won the evening.
j "Swede" Carlson and "Red"
rlummer, Thief River Falls for-
wards, did not hit a stride last night
and semed unable to solve the aggres-
sive tactics of Two Harbors. Each
frequently fumbled various openings
at different stages of the game.

Louden, who appeared in a Thief
River Falls uniform last night, did
not put up the star game he did on
former appearances in this city.. He
played at center for the locals, a po-
sition that he knows as perhaps no
other basket ball playe-r in Minne-
sota, but somehow his playing, as well
as that of>the others of the team, did
not develop tp the high state, of effi-
ciency they nivc displayed in former
Contests this year.

Two Harbors are a mighty tough
collection to do business with. They
put up a rather slow but precise
method of play and each move and
pass is well-timed, and calculated to
produce baskets. They missed com-
paratively few openings last night.

Jordan Penney Started the scoring
for Thief Riv :r ' Fall.--, which was
shortly followed by Two Harbors
putting a pass over for their first
count. Both fives at this stage "dug
and it was difficult to ascertain
the best team. Each went scoreless
for about 10 minutes until Two Har- '
bors stepped out ahead and run up a
dozen tallvs. The local boys seemed
unable to check the determined style
of attack put up by Two Harbors and
the first half ended with the lake
town boys leading, by a score of 18
to 6.

Thief River Falls came back in the
second chapter and pounded Two
Harbors for 13 points. They made
the going fast and momentarily
threatened to cut down the slight
margin held by Two Harbors". ■ The
Swede" and Plummer had taken on
a new le ase of lif e and had the -visi-
tors bewildered lit "their speed and
cleve'rness. They were holding their
own until the final ten minutes of
play when Two Harbors flung ,two
of the prettiest baskets 'ever seen in
Thief River Falls.

The largest crowd of the season
witnessed last night's contest when
several .hundred paid admission .to
see the two star teams perform. The
sidelines and gallery were packed to
overflowing and enthusiasm was at a
high pitch.

The second contest of the double-
header bill is scheduled for tonight
and the local team is determined to
even up the series. A hot contest is
expected to develop—as a result of
last night's defeat, the first, suffered
in nearly two years.

With the problem of developing
this new country. The result of
all this has been that the progress
of Northern Minnesota has been
hindered rather than aided by the

i It therefore is good to know
that the state 'land department,
under the directions of State Au-
ditor R. P. Chase, has determin-
ed that these evils shall not re-
cur, and that a program has been
formulated calling for the sale
of only such lands as are found
to be fit for cultivation . at this
time. No poor lands or lands too
far distant from roads; railways
and market centers will be ^of-
fered, and the purchaser may feel
some assurance that he is hot

worthless for settlement for many
years to come. Complete resur-

MODERN AUTO HEARSE

The following article from the Ait-
kin Republican speaks of a new in-
dustry, which bids fair to be a suc-
cess:

Mr. Wm. Craig pi Aitkin, who lives
just across the Mississippi bridge, has
embarked in raccoon farming. He re-
cently dug the postholes for a fence
which he will put up .in the near fu-
ture, and which will enclose ground to
the extent of about half of a city
block. The fence will be such as used
on the breeding farm's of fur bearing
animals, and the cap will be a ten-
inch board, laid flat, with a twelve-
inch extension of tin, so that when
the coons climb the fence they will
be unable to get a toe-hold on the
tin and will be prevented from getting
out of the enclosure.

"Mr. Craig has already secured part
of his foundation stock. On Jan. 2
he received by express one male and
two females from Warm Springs, Vir-
ginia. Previous to that time he got
two males from New Ulm, Minn., and
three females from Kentucky, and he
expects further' shipments from Ohio
and Illinois points.

Mr. Craig was a resident of Mich
igah several years ago, engaged in the
general store business and in buying
hoops. When the timber.' 1 supply be-
came exhausted'' in his neighborhood
in Michigan he moved to Aitkin and
engaged' in hoop, manufacture and

sale. This has been, his principal busi-
ness for a number; of years. But he
has some side lines that engage his
leisure time and afford him profit as
well as pleasure. One of these is a
good sized garden which is always one
of the best in Aitkin county. Another
is bee culture. Last year he had 36
swarms of bees and they were pretty
busy all the season' and manufactured
for their owner about 3000 pounds
of honey, besides laying up in store
enough to keep them over the winter.

Now Mr. Craig has tackled another ■
side line — the breeding raccoons. This
is not a new business for Mr. Craig.
When he Jived in Michigan he- had
a "coon farm," and did well with it
while he gave it^jjroper attention. But
his main -business required his being
away from home a great deal, and
while away on one of his trips the
coons got out of the enclosure, and
neighboring sportsmen camped on
their trail until they Were 'extermin-
ated. Mr. Craig does not anticipate-
any trouble of this kind now. and will
take such precautions as will prevent
his coon family from getting. out of
their enclosure. His experiment will
be watched with interest, and if he is
successful it -will point the way for
Aitkin county farm boys to start a
new business that will be of interest
to them as well as supplying them
with an additional income." '

f SENSIBLE LAND POLICY t

There is remaining in North-
em Minnesota approximately 2,-
000,000 acres of state-owned land.
Much of this under present con-
ditions is not fit for settlement
due to a variety of causes, among
them being| poor soil, either rocky
or swampy in character, absence
of good roads, distance from mar-
kets and railroads and excessive
cost oi clearing. In the past such
land has been disposed of at the
annual state sales without dis-
crimination. Actual settlers who
acquired it in many intsances

general election, November
next, voters of Minnesota will be ask-
ed to p iss on two constitutional
amendments, both products of the last
. legislator ;. Amendment No. 1, as it
will be designated, authorizes the fin-
ancial officers of the state to loan
money on approved security for agri-
cultural sdvancement, while 'amend-
ment No. .2, commits the state to a
new form of taxation — that of occu-
pation. 1'he latter is for the ostens-
ible purpose of cinching beyond any
possibility of legal interference ,the
new six'-per cent tax on the /'occu-
pation" of mining iron ore, but 1 inci-
dentally a new taxation principle is
involved and the baker, the "butcher
and the candle stick maker is just
as liable to be selected as state rev-
enue marks as those engaged in de-
veloping the - iron industry of state.
As a rule, constitutional amendments
have little to attract and'^figure only
in a small way in the political con-
troversies' preceeding a .general elec-
tion, but the chances are excellent that
the voters of the state will hot be
permitted' to be in ignorance during
tile coming campaign in the matter of
the two I amendments spoken^ of.
Amendment No. 1, which will be
known asj the "Rural Credits Amend-
ment" is (due for some publicity, but
it will not be in it with innovation No.
2. Already, it is said, a movement
is on to! secure recognition by the
several coming ' state political conven-
tions of the "Occupation Tax Amend-
ment." That such will be met with
vigorous [opposition is without ques-
tion." Reading the "Occupation Tax
Amendment" one is rather caught by
the adroitness,' those who drafted it
and maneuvered its adoption by the
last legislature. The mining of iron
ore is tlie. only "Occupation": listed
and the North country practically the
only section effected, but carefully
concealed and . available only to those
Uegally and judicially learned; is a
principle Which if written into the con-
stitution of the state can only mean
.the taxation of additional or all estab-
lished occupation if future legislatures
so desire. Under it the farmer would
be no mo -e immune than the humblest
cobbler. The two amendments are the
two most important offered the- Voting

the commission is very much in the

comply or -prepare to fight. Argu-
ments of those who put over the new
infliction were that it would me«.n
from [$4,000,000 to $5,000,000 addi-

present prospects it will be far below

:' PREFER HOME JO BUSINESS

Most Women Who Quit Their "Jobs"
Do So With a View to Be-
coming Wives.

'In normal times, twenty out of ev-
ery one' hundred persons engaged In
gainful occupations In the United
States are women. At present It is
believed that eight million women and
girls are at work and that a fourth
more will be when industry reaches
normal conditions. This Invasion of
women applies to almost every field of
enterprise. *

Yet these figures take no account
of the vastly greater number of wom-
en who are not classed as in "gainful
occupations" yet perform the natural
function of women — home making.
The woman who Is a home maker may
not be able to count her Income' In dol-
lars as accurately as the other, who
draws a fixed salary- yet she Is in a
gainful occupation nevertheless. Her
"jewels" may be her sons and daugh-
ters and her reward may be less finan-
cial, but she has it In the satisfaction
of having done a woman's part In rear-
ing a family. It does not fall to ev-
ery woman to give such service, but
to whomever It Is given to be a wife
and mother the reward is not less
though It Is -expressed In different
terms.

That the position of home maker Is
the natural desire of women Is shown
In that about ns many step out of
"gainful occupations" annually as en-
ter them. Thus for most women such
employment is but temporary in con-
templation of marriage. That so many
are willing to exchange salaries for
the home Is proof which occupation
appeals with more force, to women^ —

French Emperor Missed Opportunity

When HeiTurned Down" Ericsson's

Offer to Build Monitors.

March 8, 1862; August, 1921. These
dates comprise the history of Ironclad
monitors, the first of which, invented
by John Ericsson, met and defeated
the Merrimae at Hampton Roads on
the date first named. The last of the
British monitors, after seeing minor
service In the 'World warr was con-
signed to the scrap heap by the ad-
miralty last August

The history of the monitors goes
back to the days of Napoleon HL when
Great Britain was In a ferment, appre-
hending invasion from across the
channel. Ericsson, a Swedish engi-
neer, 1 urged the French emperor In
1854 to build; according to his design,
armored vessels of low freeboard, with
big guns' in revolving shot-proof
cupolas, placed centrally on the decks.
Such a type of armor-clad ship, he de-
clared, would revolutionize naval war-
fare. -The Idea was not carried out.
and Great Britain's wooden* ships
never had to face the ordeal of the
Merrimae. i

But Ericsson prevailed on the Union
leaders of the American Civil war
to give his Idea a trial. In 100 days
his ship was built, armed and
equipped, and It soon fulfilled the In-
ventor's hope that it would serve as
a "monitor," or lesson, to the Confed-
eracy.

Even before this, however, the Brit-
ish admiralty had taken up the idea
and had built d vessel of a similar
type. At the time of the armistice
the British navy had 87 of them.

by Herr Stlnnes, an annotated map
was published recently, . showing the
organization 'of the Bolshevist propa-
ganda throughout the various countries

According to this map, the entire
organization la under a propaganda
committee, composed of Zinovleff,
Radek, Chicherin, Lunacharski, Lit-
vlnoff, and Krassln. The working of
this committee is subdivided into sec-
tions, including an "official section,"
which" has charge of soviet diplomatic
and commercial delegations abroad; a
"press bureau," which controlB the
numerous , wireless stations; and
various "secret sections," the func-
tions of which are not made entirely
clear.

The official section Is directed from
Riga by Lltvlnoff. The Allgemeine

that was ever hauled, carrying a load
of coal approximating thirty-two mil-

tests and trials covering a range of a

shown that the operation of the loco-

mechanical device which takes the
place of firemen.

with the largest demonstration train:

449 tons and measured approximately
125 feet In length. The train was com-
posed of 100 cars, each of which
weighed 40 tons and measured 51}4

represented 120 tons of coal, making
the total weight pulled by the engine

Unfortunate Italian Woman Threatened
With Death by Her Supersti-
tious Townspeople.

Torello Rossi, a peasant of San
Prospere, Tuscany, had been ill for
some tune. As the 'cures given did
not Improve his condition, the popula-
tion decided that he was the victim of
witchcraft After taking council to-
gether, they decided that the witch
must be discovered by the testa which
have been in practice for ages, says a
Rome dispatch.

The family of Rossi were told to
put his underllnen into a pot of boil-
ing water, and then bent them with
rods. This process would cause grave-
physical pain to the witch, 'who would
then call and cure the sufferer. This
was done, and a few days later an old
woman who had originally lived next
door to Rossi appeared at the house.
Her visit immediately condemned her
In" the eyes of the populace as the
witch and she was ordered to free
her supposed victim from his illness.

She promised -to do so, but said that'
It was impossible unless she had the
aid of three other women who were
more .conversant with witchcraft than
she was. But the three were not forth-
coming, and the "miracle" was there-
fore left, to the old woman, who tried
everything she could thlnk-of to cure
the sufferer, but without success. The
crowd was finally aroused to such. an-
ger that the unfortunate woman would
probably have been drowned in the
river but for the timely intervention
of the carabineers.

Norfolk suit he wore during his junior

with what Joyous abandon Harold
stepped out of short punts into his
first suit of long trousers, mother
could not figure out why :he should
want to backslide.

, A postscript cleared up the ' mys-
tery, says the New York Sun.

"All the fellows are wearing golf
suits on the campus," Harold wrote,
"especially on Sutiirdnys and Sundays'.

Butter muking is almost a tradition-

it has been a highly developed art.
Minnesota las won so many prize ; for
butter mak ng that the winning of a
prize has become a matter of course.
Out of 18
tween the sj
creameries

national competitions be-
tates, 16 have gone to the
af Minnesota.
But Mini eosta soon must revise
that title cf the "bread and butter
state." Thei e will be mor e butter than
bread on its map. Even now, the
dairy cow represents the biggest in-
dustry of the state, and yearly she is

;r conquest more and more

into the grain-farming ' sections | and
into the cut-over lands of the north.
The value >f dairy products in Min-
nesota in 1920 was more than $200,-
000,000, a'cc jrding to a recent compila-
tion made by the State Dairy ' and
Food Commission. That exceeds in
value by a wide margin the output
of the iron mines in this greatest of
iron-producing states. It equals- the
value of all: the products of the great
Minneapolis' flour mills, manufactur-
ed from wheat gathered over most of
the Northwest and Canada. It
ceeds by $33,500,000 the combined val-
ue of the wheat, oats, corn, barley' and
rye in Minnesota, according to : the
state dnjry ! statisticians.

Truly a humble churn of the Minne-
sota farm has grown into a tremen-
dous industry.

In these days when farmers along
with men ir a good many other lines
are worryii g about reduced profits,
certainly her e is a subject for con-
sideration. How hag it been possible
to develop '.his vast industry? Why
is Minnesota the greatest butter-pro-
ducing state ? Beneath the surface of
these pretentious figures, there '.must
be some reason, just as another ;and
different set of circumstances made
Wisconsin tie great cheese-producing
center.

So, with
I went, over

ed to know
much butted

these questions in mind,
to see Chris. Heen, State
Dairy and Flood commissioner. I want-

why Minnesota makes so
Surely in the develop-

ment of th s tremendous industry,
there would be a lesson for farmers
in other states. And then I had an-
other question to ask. I wanted to
know how tie butter farmer is farm-
ing these di ys of reduced prices.

Mr. Heen motioned me to a chair,
and I asked the last question first.

"Take tht: dairy section of the
state," he s;,id, indicating by a sweep
of :his hand the great central portion,
running dia ronally across the state
from the southeast to the northwest.
"See -how thick the dots are on this
portion of t le map. These dots rep-
resent j creameries. There are 830
creameries i i the state.

"N.ow') those dots measure the pros-
perity: of Minnesota. . The dairy sec-
tioniljj? £he richest part of the state.
In pther sections that have depended
chiefly on g: -am, periods of depression
are bound to occur. But this great
central 'portion of the state finds a
golden strea n of money coming in j for
its 'cream the year around, regardless
of financial depression or crop fail-
ures. The cow keeps on giving milk
despite hard times. j

"Right now, farmers in sections that
have depended wholly on grain farm-
ing are almost bankrupt. This is
shown by a study of the bank de-
posits. Farmers actually can't/bor-
row money : n most of the grain sec-
tions, while the dairy farmers afe as
^prosperous es ever. j

"In anotht r state not far from Min-
nesota when weather conditions thru-
put the season were the same, there
were 304 m( rtgage delinquencies list-

ed as coihpared with 32 in Minnesota. ; course, to the fact that not a pound

Of the 304 listed in the other state,
but one 'was a dairy farmer. 1

A. J. JMcGuire, dairy specialist of
the Minnesota College of Agriculture,
offered this bit of testimony:

"The farmers in the grain-farming
sections; are in a 'serious condition,
while the dairy sections do not show
hard times. In both town and country:
in those sections where farmers are
engaged: in the dairy industry, the
people are prosperous."

But to return to Mr. Heen;

•"The advantage of the dairy indus-
try is shown in the increasing num-
ber of men who are giving up grain
farming: for the cow. You know, £
good many farmers have been dispos-
ed to scorn the cow because they
didn't like to milk. But the attitude
is changing. The farmers are find-
ing that it is better to milk cows for
real money than spend all their time
on grain for smaller returns.

"Dairying got its big start in Min-
nesota ; back in the early nineties,
Wheat farming had decreased the fer^
tility of the soil, and the farmers had
to adopt diversified farming. The
dairy cow came to the rescue. She
could eat the roughness and convert
it into money. Minnesota had but
556,000 cows then. The average re-
turn was only -100 pounds of butter
fat per cow. Now Minnesota has 1,-
395,000 cows, according to our figures
and each, cow produces an average of
166 pounds of butter fat a year.

"The gross returns to the state from
its cows in 1890 was but $8,700,000.
Now dairy products exceed $200,000,-
000 in value every year. Since 1910;
the production of butter in Minnesota
had increased from 95,000,000 pounds
to 139,000,000 pounds in 1920. The
average ;creamery paid out to its pa-
trons 528,000 in 1910. "In 1920, the
amount had jumr.ed to more than
$108,000.

"That's hew fast- LI:? cow has been
coming into her own in Minnesota.
More and more the farmers are go-
ing into : dairying.- Patrons of the
Minnesota creameries in 1920 totaled
more than 125.000. Dairying is sweep-
ing the ; state, and iirdoubtedly the
output of creamery butter will bi
doubled in a few years. With the in
dustry firmly .established in South-
ern and central- Minnesota, the butter
line is pushing rapidly northward.
Even up 1 in the Red River Valley,
where the farmers have always been
devoted to wheat raising, dairying is
gaining a foothold.

"Settlers in the cut-over counties
in the north, who have fought hard
to gain -a foothold by other means,
are turning to the cow. Possibilities
for dairying in Northern Minnesota
are almost limitless. There are mil
lions of : acres of land bearing good
summer range for stock. Tame grass
are bountiful, and clover grows almost
like a weed. As the clearing and set-
tlement proceeds northward, the dairy
cow is following. Eventually, this wil'
be one of the great dairy strongholds.''

Mr. Heen stopped for a moment,
and that- gave me an opportunity tt,
ask him : another question — why Min;-.'
nesota makes so much butter ?

"The state has great natural re
sources such as grass and clover," he
said. "The climate,. too, is favorable.
But the chief factor in this unusual
development, I should say, is the co-
operative creamery. The co-operative
creamery has made dairying profit-
able in Minnesota. In Wisconsin it
was the :cheese factory. But Minne-
sota pinned its hope on . butter, and
the co-operative creamery has made
possible its great progress.

"Of -the 830 creameries in the state,
642 are co-operative. That shows ex-
tensively: the co-operative movement
has grown among the dairy farmers.
These co-operative creameries in 1920
made 91,000,000 pounds of butter, or
approximately two-thirds of all the
butter made in Minnesota. No other
state can compare with this record.
Only half of Wisconsin's creameries
aer co-operative. Iowa has 'but 218.

"But here is the significant thing
about these Minnesota co-operative
creameries. The co-operative cream-
ery-returns to the producing farmer
91.3 per j cent of all the money re-
ceived for butter. The independent
creamery, returns but 89.3 per cent,
and the centralizers but 86.4 per cent.

In addition, the co-operative cream-
eries keep up the general price le^'cl.
saving the farmers thousands of dol-
lars. The dairy commissioner of Mon-
tana told | me the other day that farm-
ers in that state received as low as 12
cents a pound for butter fat last sum-
mer. Montana, has but ™:o co-opera-
tive creamery. While farmers were
getting but 12 cents for butter fat in
montana,' Minnesota fanners, backed
up by the bulwark of their 640 co-
operative; creameries, were getting 40
cents a pound or more. The average
price paiii the farmer fn- butter fat
by the Minnesota creame-ies in 1920
was 63.3 jcents a pound. The average
price received for butter by the cream- j
eries was 57.1 cents a popnd, the ap
parent discrepancy being due, of

of butter fat is required for a pound
of butter.

"The co-operative creameries make
the best butter. They take every pre-
caution to improve their products, and
have a high reputation on the mar-
kets. In fact, on the eastern markets,
butter made by * the. Minnesota co-
operative creamerregicommands from
one-fourth to onelaiS; one-half cents
a pound premiumfabove that made
by other creamer^l?' 7

Mr. McGuire likewise had eloquent
testimony- of the results obtained thru
the co-operative creamery.

"During the last four years, the

co-operative creamery paid on an av-
erage of seyen cents a pound more
for butter fat than the cream sta-
tion of th e centralizers," he said.
"That means that every year these
farmers have saved enough through
their creamery to more than build
and equip their plants anew. It means
a saving of $15 a cow, which amounts
to an enormous sum for the state as
a whole.

"The co-operative creamery has
made the dairy industry profitable in
Minnesota. It has created an incent-
ive for the industry. More than that,
it has developed a community spirit.
Business men and storekeepers, every-
body in the dairy community, is back
of the creamery operated by the
farmers. Many towns are built and
maintained largely by the dairy in-
dustry."

To see the wealth accruing to the
farmers in the iutter-making busi-
ness, one needs lut ' take a trip thru
the co-operative Igreameries. Expens-
ive buildings hoyge plants with .the
most modern equipment. InVmany
Minnesota towns,. "the. co-opjerative

creamery is i the most pretentious
building to be seen.

Pelican Rapids, not long ago, com-
pleated the erection of a creamery
costing $125,000. ' Fergus Falls farm-
ers put up another creamery, costing
$100,000, with marble floors and the
most modern equipment that science
could provide. Creameries costing
$30,000 and $40,000 are common.

Just now, the co-operative cream-
eries are uniting in the formation of
a state-wide central agency that will
help the farmers improve and market
their butter more effectively. Mr." Mc-
Guire, on leave of absence from the
university, is aiding in the formation
of this organjzation. Already 200
creameries hav e enlisted in the or-
ganization. Consignments are to be
pooled to give the creameries" the ad-
vantage of car lot shipments, agencies
are to b e established on the eastern
market, and steps are to be taken to
advertise Minnesota co-operative but-
ter. T

The dairy industry is decidedly a
growing business in Minnesota-and its
neighboring states. According to the
1920 census, Minnesota gained 447,-

070 cows, an increase of 41.1 per cent,
in 10 years. 'This would give Minne-
sota 1,532,458 dairy cows. Of the
3,103,989, gain in dairy cows in the
United States in the last 10 years,
Minnesota and Wisconsin absorbed a
gain of 1,153,382 cows, or 37 per cent
of the gain for the whole United
States. No. other section of the coun-
try can match the growth of {he dairy
industry in these and a few adjoin-
ing states.

Minnesota's nearest rivals in butter
production are Wisconsin and Iowa.
Compared to Minnesota's total of
about 140,000,000 pounds, Wisconsin
produces about 95,000,000 pounds and
Iowa about 85,000,000 pounds. Both-
New York ■" and Wisconsin exceed -
Minnesota in total . volume of dairy
products. With a great city at their
doors. New York farmers- sell "most
of their, dairy product as milk. Wis-
consin already had developed a great
cheese industry when the Minnesota
daily industry began to expand be-
yond local demands. So, early Minne-
sota pioneers pinned their hopes on
butter. And butter has done well by
Minnesota. !

Dairy Cow Is Now, Always Has Been, Always Will
Be, Minnesota's Most Reliable Mortgage Lifter

The Fact That Thief River Falls, Has One of the Very Best Conducted Creameries
in the State Gives Added Interest to Appended Article from Michigan Newspaper

The following article, which appear-
ed in the last issue of the Dearborn
-"Independent with illustrations of some
of Minnescta's splendid co-operative
creameries proved intensely interest
ing-to.us and we believe it will be
of interest to every business man and
farmer of Pennington county. If it
encourages some of our Pennington
county farmers to engage in dairying
on a larger scale, we will have ac-
complished what we hoped for by re-
producing, this article in full. Here
it is: |

For a good many years, Minnesota
has called |itself the "bread and] but
ter state." With an extensive grain
industry, the rtatc has produced for
a considerable period mor e butter than
any other state in the Union.

Every year, Minnesota makes more
butter than all of Canada. It; con
tributes approximately a seventh of
the nation's output of creamery but-
ter. Each : year a golden stream of
money flows into the pockets of Min-
; ne^ota farmers, who are engaged in
buttering ; a very extensive portion
of the country's bread. . In 1920,
creameries j of ,the state turned out
139,000,000! pounds df butter, yielding
a revenue 'of approximately $80,000,-
000, most' of which went into the
pockets of the men who milked the
cows. ] ' ,

Gutter making is almost a tradition-
al enterprise in Minnesota. For years,
it has been a highly developed art.
Minnesota ijias won so many prizes for
butter making that the winning of a
prize has become a matter of course.
Out of 18 national competitions be-
tween the states, 16 have gone to the
creameries of Minnesota.

But Minneosta soon must revise
that title of the "bread and butter
state." There will be more butter than
bread on its map. Even now,' the
dairy cow represents the biggest in-
dustry of the state, and yearly she is
extending, her conquest more and more
into the fgrain-f arming sections j and
into the cut-over lands of the north.
The value of dairy products' in Min-
nesota in 1920 was more than $200,-
000,000, according to a recent compila-
tion made by the State Dairy and
Food Commission. That exceeds in
value by a wide margin the output
of the iron mines in this greatest of
iron-producing states. It equals, the
value of all the products of the great
Minneapolis 1 flour mills, manufactur-
ed from wheat gathered over most of
the. Northwest and Canada. It ex-
ceeds by *::{). 500,000 the combined val-
ue of the wheat, oats, cc.n, ; bar!ey and
rye in Minnesota, accenting to the
stale dairy ftatiKtician^.

Truly a b,uinb!i> chi-rn of t':e Minne-
sota ;farm jias grown into a tremen-
dous industry.

In these jdays when farmers along
with men in a good many other lines
are worrying about reduced profits,
certainly hjre is a subject for con-
sideration. How has it been possible
to develop this vast industry? Why
is Minnesota the greatest butter-pro-
ducing state? Beneath the surface -of
these pretentious figures, there must
be some reason, just as another and
different set - of circumstances made
Wisconsin the great cheese-producing
center.

' So, with these questions in mind,
I went over to see Chris. Heen, State
Dairy and Food commissioner. I want-
ed to know why Minnesota makes so
much butter. Surely in the develop-
ment of this tremendous industry,
there would be a lesson for farmers
in other states. And then I had an-
other question to ask. I wanted to
know how "the butter farmer is farm-

Mr. Heen motioned me to a chair,
and I asked the last question first.

"Now, those dots measure the pros-
perity of Minnesota. The dairy ; sec-

"In another state not far from Min-

out the season were the same, there
were 304 mortgage delinquencies list-
ed as compared with 32 in Minnesota.

Of the 304 listed in the other state,
but onejwasa dairy farmer."

"The farmers in the grain-farming

But to return to Mr. Heen;

"The advantage of the dairy indus-

lions of. acres of land bearing good
summer ; range for stock. Tame grass
are bountiful, and clover grows almost
like a weed. As the clearing and set-
tlement proceeds northward, the dairy
cow is following. Eventually, this wU
be one of the great dairy strongholds. 1

Mr. Heen stopped for a moment,
and that gave me an opportunity ti.
ask him; another question — why; Min-
nesota makes so much butter?

"The state has great natural re-
sources such as grass and clover," he
said^ "The climate, too, is favorable.
But the! chief factor in this unusual
development, I should say, is the co-
operative creamery. The co-operative
creamery has made dairying profit-
able in Minnesota. In Wisconsin it
was the: cheese factory. But Minne-
sota pinned its hope on butter, and
the co-operative creamery has made
possible jits great progress.
■ "Of tlie 830 creameries in the state,
642 are co-operative. That shows ex-
tensively the co-operative movement
has grown among the dairy farmers.
These co-operative creameries in 1920
made 91,000,000 pounds of butter, or
approximately two-thirds of - all the
butter made in Minnesota. No other
state can compare with this record.
Only half of Wisconsin's creameries
aer co-operative. Iowa has but 218.

"But here is the significant thing
about these Minnesota co-operative
creameries. The co-operative cream-
ery returns to the producing farmer
91.3 per, cent of all the money re-
ceived for butter. The independent
creamery returns but 89.3 per cent,
and the centralizers but 86.4 per cent.
"In addition, the co-operative cream-
eries keep up the general price le r 'cl.
saving the farmers thousands of dol-
lars. The dairy commissioner of Mon-
tana told me the other day that farm-
ers in that state received as low as 12
cents a pound for butter fat last sum-
mer. Montana has but m:« co-opera*
tive creamery. While farmers were
getting but 12 cents for butter fat in
montana, Minnesota fanners, backed
up by the bulwark of. their 640 co-
operative creameries, were getting 40
cents a pound or more. The average
price paid the farmer fn* butter fat
by the Minnesota creameries in 1920
was €3.3 cents a pound. The average
price received for butter by the cream- 1
■eries was 57.1 cents a pound, the ap-
parent discrepancy being due, of
[ course, to the fact that not a pound

of butter fat is required for a pound
of butter.

"The co-operative creameries make
the best butter. They take every pre-
caution to improve their products, and
have a high reputation on the mar-
kets. In fact, on the eastern markets,
butter made by _ the Minnesota co-
operative creameries, commands from
one-fourth to one and one-half cents
a pound premium above that made
by other creameries."

Mr. McGuire likewise had eloquent
testimony of the results obtained thru
the co-operative creamery.
• "During the last four years, the

co-operative creamery paid on an av-
erage of seven cents a pound more
for butter fat than the cream sta-
tion of th e centralizers," he said.
"That means that every year these
farmers have saved enough through
their creamery to more than build
and equip their plants anew. It means
a saving of $15 a cow, which amounts-
to an enormous sum for the state as
a whole.

■ To see the wealth accruing to the
farmers in the butter-making busi-
ness, one needs but take a trip thru
the co-operative creameries. Expens-
ive buildings house plants with the
most modern equipment. In many
Minnesota towns, the co-operative

creamery is the most pretentious
building to be seen.

Pelican Rapids, not long ago, com-
pleated the erection of a creamery
costing $125,000. Fergus Falls farm-
ers put up another creamery, costing
$100,000, with marble floors and the
most modern equipment that science
could provide. Creameries costing
$30,000 and $40,000 are common.

Just now, the co-operative cream-
eries are uniting in the formation of
a state-wide central agency that will
help the farmers improve" and market
their butter more effectively.. Mr. Mc-
Guire, on leave of -absence from the
University, is aiding in the formation
of this organization. Already 200
creameries hav e enlisted in the or-
ganization. Consignments are to be
pooled to give the creameries the ad-
vantage of car lot shipments, agencies,
are to b e established on the eastern
market, and steps are to be taken to
advertise Minnesota co-operative but-
ter.

The dairy industry is decidedly a
growing business in Minnesota and its
neighboring states. According to the
1920 census; Minnesota gained 447,-

070 cows, an increase of 41.1 per cent,
in 10 years. This would give Minne-
sota 1,532,458 dairy cows. Of the
3,103,9S9 gain in dairy cows in the
United States in the last 10 ' years,
Minnesota and Wisconsin absorbed a
gain of 1,153,382 cows, or ! 37 per cent
of the gain for the whole United
States. No other section of the coun-
try can match the growth of the % dairy
industry in these and a few adjoin-
ing states.

Minnesota's nearest rivals' in butter
production are Wisconsin and Iowa.
Compared to Minnesota's total of.
about 140,000,000 pounds, Wisconsin
produces about 95,000,000 pounds and
Iowa about 85,000,000 pounds.! Both
New York and . Wisconsin exceed
Minnesota in total volume of dairy"
products. With a great 'city at their
doors.\New York farmers sell most
of their (fairy product as milk. Wis-
consin abready had developed a great
cbeese Industry when the Minnesota
dairy industry began to expand be-
yond local demands. So, early Minne-
sota pioneers pinned their hopes on
butter. And butter has done well by
Minnesota.

'TTHE past few years has demonstrated that cows,
A corn and clover will bring prosperity to this
community. >

There is no better land in the world for dairy-
ing than ours. The soil is perfect for clover, corn
and potatoes. '

The Directors of this Bank today reserved $10,000,00 for
loans to farmers at 6 per cent for the purchase of Dairy
Cows. 'This, then, stands for the development of the dairy
interests' of Pennington County through all farmers who
are willing to milk cows and who have the necessary feed
and shelter.

The best dairy cattle can now be purchased at
at low prices and will be supplied to ! farmers: ■ 'at
actual cost.

Call at the Bank to register your wants, as a
committee will soon be chosen to visit different
sections and to buy the cattle. . v

It seems to be customary for the
tailenders to wallop the leaders. The
Invincibles; were trimmed three
straight by the Giants and the High-
rollers lost ty?o out of three to the
Hawks. The race is so close a team
can go from first to last place in one
nights rolling. The Cub-Tiger game
was postponed until January 20 on
account of the illness of Capt. Ben
Erickson and the absence of several
members, who are out of town.

will have an opportunity in getting
practical experience with latest and
most modern machinery.

The course will be devoted entirely
to instruction in creamery work, and
will include cream grading, pasteur-
ization and ripening; use of starters
in producing desired flavors; proper
methods of making butter in order to
control its composition with reference
to moisture, fat, and salt; proper
treatment and preparation of butter
containers to eliminate mold and pre-
vent shrinkage; and the importance
and relation of accuracy in weights
and tests to the success of creameries.
The demand for well trained men in
creamery work is greater than the
supply according to Professor Keith
ley. }

Following the close of the present
course the cheese plant operators'
short course, which begins Feb. 13,
and ends March 11, will be given.

GIRLS' CLUB MEETING

Interesting Program is Rendered at
J. M. Bishop Home

■ ■ ! - '

The Girls' Community club gave a
delightful affair Wednesday evening
at the home of Mrs. J. M. Bishop,
when she invited them to make use
of it for their first meeting of the new
year. .'The regular business session
was held which' was followed by a
musical program, the first number be-
ing a violin duet by Henry Arneson
and Leih Anderson, with piano ac-
companiment by Miss Eileen Arneson.
A group of songs were then sung by
Mrs. Irma Mallory Fisher and S. Carl
Sundahl, which were greatly appreci-
ated. Supt. I. T. Simley then address-
ed the club and his subject was "Pal-
estine", which proved to be most in-
teresting and instructive. A book of
verses entitled, "Songs From The s Sil-
ence" by John Francis Glynn, a form-
er inmate of the state prison at Still-
water, were introduced by Mrs. Bishop
and several of the touching verses
were read. A social hour of dancing

and music followed and a committee
on refreshments served a light lunch
before the guests departed.

ROSEMOUNT COMMUNITY CLUB

How Housekeepers Made Notable Pro-
gress

Rosemount community in Dakota
county, Minn., has offered a particular-
ly interesting example of success in
securing community co'-operation thru
home demonstration work. About a
year ago the home • demonstration
agent for the county showed a small
group of 10 housekeepers in the com-
munity how to make a dress form.
This interested them in clothing work,
and a series of clothing meetings was
held giving the women attending much
practical help in providing for the
needs of their families through its
useful teachings. A permanent com-
munity club was started after the in-
troduction of the dress form, which
took charge of the hom e demonstra-
tion activities in. clothing work. ' '

At the> same time- Rosemount had
become concerned over the problem of
underweight children to the extent of
purchasing scales and asking for a
community .project under the state

THE American public knows
that United States Tires are
never marketed on "price."

People look to the makers of
U. S. Tires for quality traditions.
They do not want to see a policy
of superiority nibbled away for
the sake of a mere price appeal.

So we say this- to all those loyal
followers of U. S. Tires^-

Minnesota is reaay to begin; on Jan-
uary 16 to raise its share of a fund
to be known as the Woodrow Wilson
Foundation. Practically every county
in the state has been organized with
committees of men and women of
prominence. Beginning on the third
Mondayj of January "the opportunity
will be J given for this state I to ex-
press tangibly its faith in the:' liberal
ideals and in the world democracy for
which Woodrow Wilson' has been chief
spokesman." , |

Announcement to this effect came
today from the office of George H.
Partridge of Minneapolis, chairman of
the foundation in this state, jln part
the announcement i,s as follows:

"The national free-will offering to-
ward an endowment of $1,000,000 or
more to provide, through the Wood-
'ilson Foundation, periodic
for 'meritorious service to de-
public welfare, liberal
peace througfi justice' is
£p begin in this state and the other
'states of the country on January 16.

Hundreds of friends of the former
administration, friends of th> board
idealism which Mr. Wilson bespoke,
Democrats, Independents, and Repub-
licans, alike, have become parties to
this movement to establish in America
awards somewhat akin to the Noble
Prizes.-. |

"The purpose of the Foundation has
been defined in the following terms:

" 'Created in recognition of the na-
tional and international services of
Woodrow Wilson, twice president of
the United States, who furthered the
cause o ' human freedom and was in-
strumental in pointing out jffective

Bond of Human Sympathy Weak in

Last week, because God is often
very! good to me, I^got back on Main
street. I had forgotten what it is to
have real neighbors. I met men in
the club car and later ran -across
theni on the golf course. My wife
said itheir wives were, cats and I have
not the slightest doubt they detected
a resemblance to one of our softest
domestic animals in Mrs. Pilgrim. We
were all on the defensive. The' mo-
ment one of the good fellows at the
club began to get the least bit cordial
I avoided him.

No one is ever neighborly unless
he has a skinning in prospect," was
my reaction to friendly approaches.

Last week I visited a little town m
the interior of a western state. A
friend I had met a few times met me
with: his car at the black hour of 6
when my train reached that
towri. The hotel keeper saw to it
personally that my room was what it
ought to be. We had a luncheon at
which .wives were welcome guests.

and | pleaded guilty frankly to cer-
tain [counts in his indictment. Main
street is in some ways just what he
said ! it is. But back of that re a
cordial kindness toward each other
thatiwe haven't got along the Great
White Ways. The women said they
were reading this up to date novel,
and that they might not be abreast
of the current of modern thought— at
least not of all the currents-^but they
were 1 in the current. They knew
what was going on and why. To top
it all there was a .neighborliness we
miSs entirely in the cities. The two
commercial-, clubs of the»town— the
Kiwanisi and the Rotarians— met with
their 1 wives in a joint dinner that
night. It was a combination of old-
fashioned singing school and business
meeting and civic boost. One could
trace the ancestry of that gathering
right back to the* old town meetings
which helped make New England
character and through it the Amer-
ican .Character what it is.

Pennington county, with other
counties in the state, can secure a
complete system of good local roads
in the shortest tune and with least
expense by adopting a definite pro-
gram of systematic improvement;
pooling its road and bridge funds with
those of the townships, and applying
modern roadbuilding methods.

Charles M. Babcock, state highway
commissioner, this week made the
foregoing statement, and recommend-
ed a call for an ! early convention in
each county seat,] or centrally located
town in the county, at which county
commissioners and the supervisors
from every 'township may meet with
the county highway engineer to work
out a definite systematic plan of coun-
ty good' roads development. By end-
ing commonr patch-work practices, he
added, the proposed .plan will produce
the greatest results and biggest meas-
ure possible from the money used.

Funds available; for roads other than
trunk highways in Pennington coun-
ty last .year exceeded $75,000, he said,
indicating the importance of prompt
action. Good roads conventions are
being recommended to all Minnesota
counties — even Renville, Carlton and
some others which already are operat-
ing with success I under the plan but
where a general meeting promises ad-
ditional benefits.

Minnesota county and township
road funds combined are now consider-
ably larger than! the trunk highway
fund total," said Mr. Babcock. "While
the trunk mileage is less, it requires
more costly improvements and main-
tenance, and all things considered, lo-
cal road improvements should, easily
keep pace with those on the trunk
routes. We are suggesting the. coun-
ty roads conventions because we be-
lieve great accomplishments possible
from county-town co-operation.

Commissioner Babcock made it
plain that the critic i sm is drawn by
the practices of ' long standing, and
not by the efforts of the county or
town road authorities, whom he credit-
ed with earnest work to get results.
But new and far, better methods can
be employed to great advantage, he
added, predicting hearty co-operation
of the local officials to that end. -_

"County and town road officials in
convention with tie highway engineer
should agree upon a definite plan of
road improvements based upon the
actual needs and importance of each
road and extending over three or more
years," said Mr. Babcock. "They
should then pool' town | with county
funds to carry it out. Better methods,
heavier equipment and so forth, and
the systematic plan can be combined
for economy and best results— increas-
ed satisfaction for taxpayers .and;
even more road jobs for farmers
Every county engineer, I am sure.wfll
be glad to assume the extra work put
upon his office because pi the bigger
benefits that will come.

"Just as the trunk highway pro-^
jeots disregard comity lines, so :will

"So it is plain," said Mr. Mullen,
"that the great sums raised for local
road work should be well used; also
that the Babcock plan is mainly a
farmers* road plan, the so-called farm
road funds exceeding the trunk funds
even in 1921 when the big part of
the bond money was used."

Pointers On Income
ax Return Issued

Every Single person Over

21 Years of Age Must

Pile Statement

Net Income is Gross Less
Deductions for Expens-
es, Losses, Etc.

With the approach of the period for
filing income jtax returns, — January
1 j to March 15; 1922,— taxpayers are
advised to lose no time in the compil-
ation of their accounts for the year
1921. A new and important provision
of the revenue act of 1921 is that
eyery person whose gross incomes for
1921 was! $6,000 or over shall file a
return, regardless of the amount of
net income upon which the tax is as-
sessed. Returns are required of every
single person ;whose net income was

$1,000 or over and every married per-
son living with husband or wife' whose
net income was $2,000 or over.; Wid-
ows and widowers and persons sep-
arated or divorced from husband or
wife, are regarded as single persons.

Net income is gross income, less
certain deductions for business ex-
penses, losses, taxes, etc. : Gross in-
come includes practically all income
received by the taxpayer during the
year; in the case of the wage earner,
salaries, wages bonuses and commis-
sions; in .the case .of professional
men, ail amounts received for*' profes-
sional services; in the cases of farm-
ers all profits from the sale of farm
products, and:- rental or sale of land.

In making ah income tax; return for
the year 1921, every taxpayer should
present to himself the following ques-
tions: :

What were your profits from your
business, trade, profession or voca-
tion? '

Did you receive any interest on
bank deposits? '•

Have you any property from which
you received rent? | '

Did you receive any income in the
form of dividend or interest from
stocks or bonds?

Did you receive any bonuses during
the year?

Did you make any profit on the
sale of stocks, bonds, or other proper-
ty, real or personal?

Did ybu act as a broker in any
transaction from which you received
commissions? •

-Are you interested in" any partner-
ship or other firm from which you
received any income?

Have you any income from royal-
ties or patents?.

Have you any minor children who
are working? w .

_ Do' you appropriate, or have the
right to appropriate, the earnings of
such children? If so, the amount
must be included in the return of in-
come. . *

Has your wife, any income from any
source whatsoever? If so it must be
included in your return or reported in
a separate return of income.

Did you receive any. directors' fees
or trustees' fees in the course of the
year?

Do you hold any office in a benefit
society from which you receive in-
come ?

Answers to*all of these questions

are necessary to determine whether a
person has ( an income sufficiently
large to- require that a return be filed,
and may be the means of avoiding
the heavy penalties imposed for fail-
ure to do so .within the time' pre-
scribed.

CORN "HOGGING" ADVISED

FOLLOWING EXPERIMENT

The cost of gathering corn is prac
tically saved by hogging it down, E. v
F. Ferrin and L. A. Jessup of the*
animal husbandry division of the Uni-
versity farm, says, following a com
hogging experiment just completed.
Where it cost $3.09' to produce 100
pounds of gain by the'dry.lot method,
the expense of prqducirfglthe same
gain by hogging' down methods
amounted to $2.58 and $2.59. The ex-
periment/ which was begun- Sept. 26
-and ended"" Nov. 3, was conducted 'to
determine the practicability of hog-
ging down corn from an economical
and feeding viewpoint.

Three lots of 15 hogs each were
used. In the first lot the hogs were
allowed corn and tankage at will. The
hogs in the second were given stand-
ing corn of one acre in size and with

an estimated yield of 62.85 bushels,
supplemented with tankage fed in a
self feeder. In the^third lot the hogs
were given standing" corn with an esti-
mated yield of 57.57 bushels measur-
ing approximately one acre, and con-
taining rape sown at the last cultiva-
tion. Tankage was 'also fed. While
less feed was used to produce l6o
pounds of gain in the dry lot, the
cost in producing (he gain was 50
cents more than for the second, lot and
51 cents more than for the third. The
difference was due to the cost of husk-
ing, which amounts to six cents a
bushel.

"Hogging down corn is a success-
ful and economical method of produc-
ing pork," say Mr. -Ferrin and Mr.
Jessup. "Hogs are efficient corn har-
vesters. The method eliminates the
cost and loss of corn, storage. The
manure is conserved and distributed
evenly over the field."

ESSAY CONTEST 'I

Red River Valley Winter Shpw s at
Crookston Feb. 6 to 10

The Red River Valley shows, which
will be held at Crookston, February
6-10, 1922, will carry out the- essay
contest again this year. The contest
is open to all school students up to
and including the eighth grade.

The subject should be of special in-
terest: "The Future of the Red River
Valley." This portion of our country
is known world-wide. It is as yet
only in the beginning of its develop-
ment but has possibilities that' one
can realize only after some study.

Participation on the part of school
children will serve a double purpose —
to enlighten them on some of -the
facts, of this wonderful valleyj and to
offer material for language work. A
committee was appointed by the
Northwestern Minnesota Educational
association to have this matter in
charge, consiting of Supt. S. A. Aas,
Fertile; Supt. Jos. Hamre, Erskine and
Supt. David Johnson, Warren. They
have- sent the rules and regulations
to all schools in this district. Teachers
would do well to get their pupils to
work on this subject. Write to the
Northwest Experiment Station at
Crookston for material.

Although Two Harbors won by e

had been through one of the toughest

iir career, and admittet

for the element of il

contest started with a bang and end

both teams up on their toes during
which neither o|f the two crack teams
gave an inch.

Herewith is presented a view of the new j residence
just i completed for the medical staff and nurses at the'
Oakland Park Sanatorium. The building which » was
completed at a cost of approximately $30,000, was ac-
cepted by the commissipn on January 5th. Construc-
tion! began last June.!; The structure is along colonial
lines of [architecture, hollow tile andibrick.construction,
two-jstory and basement, presents a ! most pleasing ap-

The first floor has .Six living. rooms, two; sun par-

floor, where he lay for a few mo-
ments painfully wounded. Time was
immediately; called and Carlson assist-
ed from tire" floor.

The>whistle blew with the teams
tied, necessitating another five min-
utes of play, in which neither five
was able to jscore the winning basket.
Still another five-minute period was
played' and Two Harbors talleyed four
points, while Thief River Falls, owing
to their crippled lineup, could muster
but two. '

The greatest credit; must be given
the local boys for the; high quality of
the game they put up Friday night.
They had as their Opponents a basket
ball team that has experienced but
four defeats in as many years. The
Two Harbors five has played profes-
sionally in various parts of the coun.
try and have been accredited by Wal-
ter Camp, famous Yale coach and
famous sports writer, with being
one of the! five best teams in the
United Statees. To hold such a team
to a tie is { something worth talking
about v Taking the foregoing facts
his teammates took matters in hand I into consideration, it is not too much to
until they evened the score in the firs ( t|say that Thief River Falls has an all-

half, which ended 12 to 13.

Thief River Falls was on the of-
fensive all the way and carried the
Rattle to Two Harbors during the en-
tire half, settiiig a pace so. fast that
the lake town boys seemed highly
confused at th( ir speed and accuracy,.
Two Harbors, >n the other hand, put
up the most stubborn kind of resist-
ance and fought the terrific on-
slaughts of tie local stars as best
they could.

Carlson was sverywhere and no im-
portant play came off without his hav r
ing a hand in it. He easily walked
off with the lonors of the evening.
Two Harbors Epparently was amazed
' at his speeds i ,nd accuracy when he

\ flung basket ifter basket from difj-
,'ficult positions and tore^hrough their
'defense like a vild cat. J

Louden, whe again appeared in
. Thief River Fills uniform, played an

■ excellent gam< and perhaps not an
opening occuri ed . but what he took
advantage of tie situation and chalk-
ed up a tally ::or Thief River Falls.|
Almost every basket ball game has
its spectacular and brilliant plays,
but the basket flung by Lpuden dur-
ing the game Friday night perhaps
stands head over heels above any sp
far seen here tjhis year. From a deep
left position he flung a cage that went
through the ri; n for the cleanest kind
of a score. The ball didn't even touch
the rim and ilmost took the breath

i of the spectatc rs.

! Holtzknecht, Brown, Louden, Plum-
mer, Carlson- stars all of there
went down fiihting for Thief River

i Falls as they had never fought befori.
Had it not bem for the unfortunate
accident that -befell the gallant and
militant "Swede" during the final fe-

!star aggregation of basketballers that
must be reckoned with whatever and
whomever they play and local follow-
ers feel that they are represented by

team of the highest order.

Although ! they lost both games to
Two Harbors, they demonstrated
both contests, more particularly in the
game Friday night, that they are an
extremely difficult aggregation to
contend with.

Another record crowd turned out for
Friday night's game and enthusiasm
for Coach Cpnnell's men- ran high. The

President E. G. Hall and
.. John J. Manning Give
Stirring Addresses

The labor rally and mass meeting,
given under the auspices of the Thief
River Falls Federation of Union men
at the Auditorium Saturday night, at
which ; . E. G. Hall, president of the
Minnesota State Federation of Labor,

d John J. Manning, representative
of [ the label department of the Am-
erican Federation of Labor, delivered
the .principal addresses, was well at-
tended. It is estimated that several
hundred workers, including a number
of farmers and sympathizers of the
labor movement in this vicinity, heard
the messages delivered by the two
labor leaders.

Mr. Hall gave the opening address
and presented a general review of the
federation's work in the state during
the past year. He outlined to those
present the great necessity of organ-
ization, more particularly now than at
any other time in the history of labor,
in view of the present object of the
predatory interests at work in the
United States bent on destroying the
least semblance of organizationon the
part of the workers.

If organization on the part of
those who oppose us," declared Mr.
Hall, "is beneficial to them, why is it
not a good thing for us? We have
already demonstrated to the world
that our aim csoincide with every
argument for civilization, yet they
call us un-American and are at-
tempting to force upon us their vers-
ion of the square deal in industry,
namely the "American plan,"- which
has for its object the taking away
from labor of its contsitutional rights
under the law for collective bargain
ihg in the matter of hours, conditions
and wages, and substituting their idea
by forcing upon us a plan whereby
they will be the absolute dictators,

j'We are all aware of what their
success has been. It need not be said
here that they have been defeated in
almost every attempt to strip labor of
its inherent rights." _ ■

"- Mr. Hall told of various activities
of the federation , in Minnesota, par-
ticularly in the larger cities of the
state,- such as Minneapolis, St. Paul
and-Duluth. He said that the, work-
ers in these cities present a solid
front and the reports sent broadcast
by their enemies that labor there had

a violin and a choice' of a number of _„ _

phonograph records. Tickets entitling become an unknown, quantvty were

falsehoods and that he could prove it
by facts and figures.

Mr. Manning spoke on the benefic-
ial effects of the union label as it
concerns the workers everywhere. He
said the label is labor's weapon of
peace and that it stands for the square
deal in industry and guarantees the
article bearing it inasmuch as it is
the symbol of a fair Say's work for
a fair day's pay. He urged all pres-

ent, as well as all sympathizers of
the cause of labor, to pay more at
tentibn to its meaning and that they
should demand it on every thing they
purchase.

Mr. Manning spoke more fully re
garding labor's program at Washing-
ton and urged his hearers to in fu
ture pay mor e attenttion to the doings
of their representatives in Congress
than they had heretofore.

The Poindexter bill, which recently
passed the senate, he classed as espe-
cially vicious in that it provides severe
penalties upon labor leaders when
their utterances on labor questions fail
to meet the views of the mayors or
police chiefs in any part of the couh
try. The law stipulates that a fine
of ?10,000 or 10 years imprisonment,
or both, may be inflicted upon the
victims of the law, and that persons
arrested may be tried in any part of
the country which the trial judge may
designate. He took severely to task
the two Minnesota senators.

. Deaf people are . to have . special
churches in Germany, with telephone
between the pulpit and the news.

, If the friends of Knox school are
worshippers at the shrine of hoodoo
signs, their fears of bad omen must
have been dispelled by the overwhelm-
ing success of the dedicatory exercises
on the evening of Friday, January
13th. The exercises were somewhat
delayed by the counter attraction at
the Auditorium — the basket ball game
— but the people spent the interim in
a critical inspection of the building,
which was illuminated from cellar to
garret. "When the ■ exercises opened
every chair in the spacious auditorium
was occupied and hundreds stood up,
filled the vacant spaces at the sides
or viewed the ceremony from vantage
points around the light well on the
second floor.

Prof. J. H. Hay, who delivered the
principal address, devoted himself to
h general discussion of education, or
to be more exact — the lack of it in %
certain rural communities. He brush-
ed aside the sentimntal viewpoint sur-/
rounding the little red school house,
and insisted that means must be found
for extending better educational ad-
vantages to the children of the coun-
try. This led him to make, as a com-
parison, a statement of the service
rendered by the high schools and con-
solidated schools that- exist in many
communities. Particularly did he call
attention to instances of great service
and benefit bestowed upon worthy pu-
pils from isolated townships by the
Thief River high school, arid he re-
cited how several graduates of .the
local schools who have since won high
standing and respect in their chosen
professions, were assisted in their
early struggles by men well known
locally. Prof. Hay, who served as
principal of schools in this city for
many years, reviewed the east side
schools from their inception. He spoke
of the several additions to the .old
Knox wooden building, and successive-
ly recounted the evolution which has
culminated in the present magnificent
Knox — a credit to the east side and
the school system of the city. Prof.
Hay expressed his personal pleasure
at being in Thief River Falls among
his old friends, where, in contrast to
the big cities, he claimed to find the
purest democracy and an absence of
snobbish arictocracy. In conclusion he
dedicated the new Knox to the aris-
tocracy of- Intellect. Character . and
Energy — The dominating influences of
education. Prof Hay took occasion to
compliment the board upon their-fpre-
sight in planning the building, making
the statement that more than 5100,000
had been saved to the tax payers by
delaying construction a year and then
utilizing the basement and parts of
the walls of the old building.

Supt. Simley spoke briefly on edu-
cational subjects and Dr. Froehlich
then opening the . exercises by intro-!
ducing W. W. Prichard, Jr., who re-
turned to the architect the plans and
the key to the new building. Mr.
Prichard gave all. credit for the per-
fections of the building to th e ef-
ficient workmen who interpreted^the
plans submitted. Following his re-
marks the architect, Mr. Dunham, of
the firm of Sund &. Dunham, who su-
pervised the construction, made a
short address, at the conclusion of
which he presented the plans and key
of- the Knox to President Froehlich,
who made the acceptance on behalf
of the board and citizens of the city.

Several musical selections enlivened
the exercises. Carl Sundahl. sang a
solo in his usual happy manner, and
a piano solo by Herman Bischoff, the
blind musician, received viciferous ap-
plause froin the audience. He re-
sponded with an encore.

Several selections were rendered by
the high school orches&a under the '

Dolly 'Verden, according to tin: old
song, had dainty little feet anc

observer, I oily never wore low shoes
in season rnd out ofreeason. The re-
sult was that Dolly'sjankles were kept

arid the fruit stuck in his throat.
All males since Adam have. had this

This particular section of the Bel-

rampant cannlbaliam of the natives.

ther on to the north, where the strong
arm of the white man's law has not

palmy days, and slaves are fattened
for the regular feasts of the year.
Here, the j government has not yet al-

Even In the district through which
we were how passing a Belgian trader
had beenj attacked only a few months
before. Shortly after leaving the vil-
lage of a chief— Mpereta — who had
received jus with extreme cordiality,
we came upon a relic of the recent
history of the chief and his village.
It was a phallic emblem post decor-
ated with the bleached skulls of small
children. : It had escaped the notice of
government troops who have orders
to destroy them.

At several villages we found the old
sort of Bachokwe natives still avowed-
ly hostile to all white people, who had
given up: open cannibalism only when
they had to. The people and their
chiefs refused to have anything to do
with us, { although they did not open
hostilities. On such occasions we
quickly changed our plans as to set-
ting up camp for the night The trail
ahead seemed strangely attractive just

that the' work of the poison squad
seeking to kill coyotes has been seri-
ously Interfered with, according to a
report to the biological survey, United
States /Department of Agriculture,

"Owing to the extremely warm
weather,!' reads the report, "coyotes
stayed In the rough and brushy places,
which made it necessary to put the
poison bait In and around these places.
It was noted that mice interfered ma-
terially by carrying away and eating
the poison baits before the coyotes
could get to them.
: "Poisoned grain was used In an ef-
fort to kill off the coyotes, but In many
-cases there was no end to mice coming
Into poison stations."

Notwithstanding these difficulties,
the five men assigned to poison work
made a [satisfactory record, says the
Weekly News Teller. The total num-
ber of animals killed during one month
by government hunters In the district
is reported at 542.

; Walking to Walk.
For a long* time In this country
walking attracted less attention than
any other outdoor -pastime on the
calendar. Indeed, once upon a time
a man; who felt like going for a
tramp simply put on his hat and started
off. He carried no advertisement of
his game such as Englishmen did with
their ''knickers, heavy shoes, distinc-
tive hats and stout walking sticks. The
American simply went walking to,

ing Is coming into the recognition It
deserves. Hiking Is fashionable. Clubs

ANCIENT POSTAL SERVICE

Most people regard the postal ser-
vice as a |modern institution; yet this
is not so, for regular postal .services
have existed for more than two thou-
sand years.

One of the earliest systems for the
delivery of letters was established by
Persia mor« than five centuries before
th e Christian era.

In those days letters were not writ-
ten on paper. They took the form of
short sticks, on which a message was
inscribed either by means of paints,
or by burning it on with a kind of-
primitive ; poker-work outfit. These
letters were delivered by regular re-
lays of postment over thousands of
miles of country.

Even; the telegraph was in use in a
crude form. Messages could be sent in
an hour or two over distances of hun-
dreds of miles by rrwr. <vf a system
of shouters, who passed them on from
one to the 1 other.

ticipate in the state tournament to
be held later, on in March.

Effort is being made to have infor-

division of the league sent to the dif-
ferent schools so that the league
standings may be published from week
to week and in this way the people
may be kept informed as to th e stand-
ing of the different teams. Watch for
this information, see to it that our
boys get the moral and financial
backing that they, need if they are to
make the best possible showing.

Former Head of Minne-
apolis Civic Bodv Dis-
cusses Farm Relief

Too Much Promise and Lit-
tle Performance is
Present Dav Evil

At last Thursday's . noon luncheon
ofthe Commercial club, A. M. Sheldon,
president of the First ' and Peoples
bank, addres'sed the club members
along agricultural lines, suggesting
that one great trouble in the present
farm~crisis is the disposition of peo-
ple to deal entirely with conditions,
making destructive criticism without
offering any tangible method, of relief.
With this in mind, he came to the

club with the announcement which
appeared in last Friday's issue of The-
Tribune, that the directors of the First
and Peoples bank had set aside a def-
inite sum to be offered farmers for
the purchase of dairy cows. He
praised the city and surrounding coun-
try, recounting vividly the many ad-
vantages to be found here, and in line
with the action of the bank directors,
gave it as his opinion»tha't a 'change
from small grain farming to the "dairy
industry would prove immensely ben-
eficial to the community. Mr. Shel-
don, who served two years as presi-
dent of the Minneapolis Civic and
Commerce association, .impressed the
club members with his sincerity and
showed in his discussion an intimate
knowledge of the affairs of the entire
northwest.

Brief remarks were made by Rev.
Sweger and by the coach of the visit-
ing Two Harbors basket ball team. .

At the suggestion of G. C. Streeter
th e club gave its endorsement to
changes in the routing of the Chip-
pewa Trail, which now is to be ex-
tended and marked through Thief
River Falls to Grafton, N.*D.

After smokingjj'our first Spur, you might
say "just rigKt," : "immeiise" or "great"—
means the same' thing. Means: "There was
room at the top for a cigarette that can refresh
a tired and much tried taste. And Spur's that
cigarette."

In the new Spur blend you find :

The richness of the full-bodied Oriental leaf
tempered by the mildness and fragrance of
Burley and other choice home-grown tobaccos.
It's a happy blend that brings out to' the full
that good tobacco taste.

And what's more ! . Satiny imported paper,
crimped, not pasted — makes an easier-drawing,
slower-burning cigarette. A mighty neat "brown
and silver" package, with triple wrapping,
keeps Spurs fresh and fragrant. Just smoke a
Spur and see.

Composition of Mary Alex-
ander Submitted in Na-
tional Contest

REBEKAH INSTALLATION

HELD AT I. O. O. F. HALL

The Central school pupils have par-
ticipated in tire National essay con-
test on "How I Can Make the High-
ways More Safe." Some very excel-
lent compositions have been written.
That of Mary Alexander _has been
awarded first place locally and is the
composition sent in from our city
schools to compete for state and na-
tional honors. The national prizes are
three and consist of the following:
First, a gold watch and trip to Wash-
ington with all expenses paid; sec-
ond, a gold loving cup, j and third, a
silver loving cup. Besides the nation-
al ^prizes, there is also j a state first
prize of a gold medal and $15.00 in
cash, £ne second prize! °* a silver
medal and $10,000 in cash, and nine
third prizes, each a bronze medal and

i.00 in' cash. • j .

Naturally the competition in this
contest has been very I keen and a
great many very excellent composi-
tions have been submitted. It will,
therefore, be a great honor to win one
of the Minnesota prizes| to say noth-
ing of one of the national prizes. Even
though no prize is won it is never-
theless a signal honor to have writ-
ten the best composition to be sub-
mitted from Thief River Falls, and
Mary is to be congratulated on her
achievement.

Honorable mention should also be
made of the compositions submitted
in our school by Frances Conklin, Lois
Nicholson, and Frances Shanahan. In
the preparation of these compositions
a great many facts have been assim-
ilated and much interest has been
aroused in this very important topic
of public highways. Even though no
other importance attached to the
working out of this theme, the fact
that they actually have become in-
terested and have given serious thot
to thei question is of itself worth all
the time and energy put on it.

The officers of the Thief River Falls
lodge, No. 69, of the Rebekah order
for the ensuing year were installed
Thursday evening, January 12, at the
I. 0. O. F. hall. About 65 were pres-
ent at the beautiful and impressive

conducted by Installing Officer Mrs.
Mathilda Norquist, who was assisted
by Mrs. Laura Gasow, Mrs. Cora Mor-
gan, warden, Mrs. Maiy Farr, district
deputy, assisted by Sisters Esther
Rdlland, Martha Larson, Lillian Whit-
ing and Eva Angell.

The new officers of the Thief River
lodge are: Past grand, Sister Anna
Robinson; noble grand, Sister Clara
Johnson; vice grand, Sister Myrtle
Blair; recording secretary, Sister Nel-
lie Cronstrom; financial secretary, Sis-
ster Clara Gullingsrud; treasurer, Sis-

Fencing Master: "Now, «nademoi

your opponent feinted?"

Demure Damsel: "I think I'd just
tickle her with the point of it to see
if she was faking."

The heap big Indians from the
White Earth reservation are coming
here Thursday evening to scalp the
local aggregation of basket ball play-
ers, representing the high school, in
a contest to be staged at the Audi-
torium that evening. The high school
boys went to Argyle and Stephen
last week and fared badly in western
Marshall county, being defeated at
Argyle Friday evening by a score ot
15 to 13 and at Stephen Saturday eve-
ning 21 to 12. The boys were a little
out of form and all the breaks went
against them, but they are willing
to bet altj their loose wampum that
they will redeem themselves Thurs-

day evening against the Mahnomen
quint.

The game will begin promptly at 8
bells: and the Tribune has a tip that
the locals will commit anything short
of homicide in order to be in the run-
ning for the finals next March— and
in order to do so they must show
form in their contest Thursday night.

"SWEDE" CARLSON, INJURED
FRIDAY, STEADILY IMPROVES

"Swede" Carlson, stellar forward of
the Thief River Falls basket ball
team, who was seriously injured -last
Friday night in the game with Two
Harbors, is steadily improving. He
has been about town continually ever
since he suffered a severe bruise of his
left knee when he was thrown violent-
ly to the floor when a Two Harbors
man tackled him in struggling for
the ball during the course of the game.
It is now thought that he will be in
th e lineup for the next game.

FAIRY TALES

'About the time a girl loses her
faith in fairy tales," said the cynic,
"she begins to believe in love."

"Yes," replied the optimist, "and
although her lover whispers .sweet
nothings in her ear, she has great
hopes that eventually they' wil^ mean
a great deal."

BASKET BALL TEAMS GUESTS '

The victors and the vanquished in
Thursday and Friday night's basket

thanked the local people for the splen-

follows: * -

"The Italian public expects too much
of the government. Every traveler
should take some insect powder with
him and squirt it over the seats be-
fore he sits down. But there are
other reasons why we can't get our!

do so say they won't clean out first

Judge Mathews vs. County
Auditor of Lyon Coun-
ty Was Test Case

Probate judges electejd in Minnesota
in 1920 hold over until Jan. 1, 1925,
according to a decisioi of the state
supreme court in ja ci.se brought to
test this question. I The people voted
for a constitutional ammdment at. the
1920 election, extending probate
judges' terms to four years, and the
court holds that this applied to the
judges chosen at jthe same election.
There will be no election of probate
judges this year. I

The point was settled by a three to
two vote, Chief Justice C. L. Brown
and Justice H. B.j Dibell dissenting.
Commissioner Edward Lees wrote the
opinion. Construing the amendment
adopted in 1920, the court says, "it is
held that the amenomeit enlarged the
terms of judges chosen
election in 1920, and
office in January, 1921
four years."

The case came up on a writ of cer-
tiorari. J. V. Mathews,
of Lyon county, asked that R. R.
Houdersheldt, county auditor, be re-
quired to accept his filing as a candi-
date for re-election in
is discharged, and the decision acts as
a precedent for all other counties in
the state.

UNPUBLISHED PRAYER

1 BY STEVENSON

An unpublished prayer by Robert
Louis JStevenson has been discovered
oh the fly-leaf of a dictionary that
belonged to the celebrated author. The
dictionary was presented to the Stev-
enson Society of America. The pray-
er, written by Stevenson on the fly-
leaf of the book, is as follows:

"Lord, behold us come before Thee
this night, once more assembled. Help
us in our troubles, correct us in our
faults, give us to see so far as may
be needful, help us to see as far as
may be right, and yet not further,
n all vicissitudes of our career. For
them that are absent, we offer Thee
our supplications. Be good to the
green and to the ripe. Prepare the
child for the arena. To our absent
mother, give my armfuls, the last
gleanings of the harvest of her life,
so that sh e may go down there where
she must go in the beauty of a serene
evening, not without its songs. Help
us one and all to hear and to forbear,
for Thy name's sake, and let this home
of ours endure all strokes of enemies
from without and of enemies from
within; until we shall be_gathered, one
by one into Thy garner of the dead
and resting, nevertheless not as we
\Vill but as we shall serve in the un-
known. design."

CRIME'S LURE AND

DESIRE FOR THRILLS

Despite the fact that in most in-
stances "honesty is the best policy"
there is- a decided lure to a career of
crime, that is not du e to inherited
wickedness, moral perversity or force
of dircumstances due to our social
system. Scientists now recognize it
is due to a pathological craving for
excitement, and is indirectly caused
by a weakened nervous system.

The rich, society woman has the
means of satisfying her craving for
excitement in other fashion, but she
sometimes joins the criminal class. To
the poor the craving for excitement
cannot be gratified without money and
sometimes crime is deemed the easiest
way for this, plus the added induce-
ment of material gain.

It is claimed that late dances, jazz
and a score or more of different fads
leave in their wake diseased nervous
systems that are susceptible/to the
craving for excitement and foV crime.

The new science of psycho-analysis
is also being used in the detection of
crime. A suspected man is asked a
considerable number of questions,
most of which have nothing to do
with the crime. The time which he
takes to reply to each is carefully
measured by means of a stop-watch.
If he°shows marked hesitation when-
ever questions of a certain kind are
put, the investigator knows that he
is on the right track, and follows up
his advantage.

Sometimes use is made of an ex-
tremely ingenious little machine,
which measures'' variations in the
pressure of the blood. The stop-watch
may show nothing at all, for a hard-
ened criminal on his guard is very
difficult to catch; he will answer all
questions with equal readiness. But
his pulse gives him away.

^Everyone knows what an effect any
form of excitement or of nervousness
has upon the heart. Under their in-

fluence the heart beats — only for a
moment perhaps — more rapidly, and
the blood-pressure rises.

The sphygmomanometer, as the in-
strument is called, registers even the
tiniest variation, enabling the inves-
tigator to see- just which questions
or suggestions produce nervousness.
It is claimed that by its aid a skilled
operator can always tell whether his
subject is lying or telling the truth!
j And so by making every use of the
cervices of the branches of science,
the forces of law and order maintain
an ever-tightening grip upon the ene-
mies of society, i A small proportion
may escape the consequences of their
wrong-doing, but on the , whole the
number of untraced criminals is a
small one. It is continually growing
less.

•TOR THE WIFE AND KIDS.f

"The wife and kiddies" *plea has
crept into the courts, trying bootleg-
gers. The excuse offered by a boot-
legger in a New York court, when he
was answering the charge of having
violated the law by disposing of alco-
hol, was that he could not find work.
As his wife was sick and his young-
sters needed food, he turned to liquor
dispensing as an easy and quick way
of securing money. The judge, be-
fore whom he was tried, withdrew the
fine that had been imposed and of-
fered his services in finding a legiti-
mate job.

$48 PER, LOVE'S STIPEND
A class referendum taken at Gou-
cher college, Baltimore, shows the
girl seniors of that institution think
a young couple can safely wed if the
man is assured an income of ?48 a
week. Few of them thought it nec-
essary to have an income of more
than $4,000, and only one insisted the
man of her choice should show earn-
ings, of $8,000 a year. One young
miss set her limit at $850, without a
child, and at $1,000, with one child. ;

TEN REASONS FOR

WIFE'S UNHAPPINESS

That wealth is not everything in
married life and that the mere pos-
session of it does not bring happiness
is demonstrated by the separation suit
brought by Mrs. Grace P. Van Ider-
stine against her husband, William P.
Van Iderstine, member of a wealthy
Brooklyn family. Among other things
she lists the following ten reasons why
she should be granted a'separation:

1. Never used endearing terms.

2. Did not speak to. her for days if
she left the house without his permis-
sion.

3. Always abusive when friends
were present..

4. Insisted on attending afternoon
dansants. ■

5. Created a scene if she ever
danced with a male -friend he intro-
duced her to.

6. Usually created a scene when
they took dinner out with friends.

7. insisted she spend her time,
even during the hottest days of sum-
mer, in the big living room of their
Huntington country estate, where
there was always a wood fire in the
open fireplace.

8. Created more than on e scene at
the Huntington Country club where
she refused to .dance when she was
tired.

9. Accused her of using "dope."

10. Accused her of carrying on an
affair with her brother-in-law.

AFTER "BOOZE LUBS." -

A special drive has begun against
"booze clubs" that have sprung up in
many cities since prohibition. Thesa "
clubs are organized to make an oasis
in the desert of business. The busi-
ness men drop into them on their way
home at night to have a friendly drink
before dinner.

Domestic life and affection is very |
highly developed among wild ducks.

THE TmEF JRIVER FALLS TRIBUNE

Redman Nea:- Cass Lake Re-
ceive Payment of $100
From Government

Gone Are Msccasins, Trap-
j pings, Scab; locks and Old

Paint

That the American Indian has
^caught on with his white neighbors
in the matter of e conomy in living and
th e saving of his money, has become
noticeable, it is said, where Indians
live in numbers, as for instance, at
Cass Lake, where the Chippewas last
week . received tl mir allotment from
Uncle Sam in the form of a $100
check.

As announced r i The Tribune a short
time ago that Northern Minnesota In
dians would recei' e $100 from the gov-
ernment to tide t icm over the depres
sion and until a new crop is harvested,
; the Cass Lake Times prints a lengthy
article, relating he manner in whicli
the Indians behived themselves now
ithat their money will not buy the
: "stuff" that put so. much "pep" into
them in former c ays.

Prohibition has- had its effect upon
these former devotees, according to

According to the Cass Lake news-
paper, the Indiar s in that section have
forsaken their old habits of frivolity,
drinks, pow-wov s and poker, and are
getting into the harness out there in
good shape.

Says the Cass Lake Times: "Every-
one in town rem irked about the quiet-
ness with which, the largest payment

but there wasja lack of the pageantry
ivhich marked* th4 payments in the old
days when the ojd bucks would come
to town' dolled ap in war paint and
feathers and days would be consumed
playing the moccasin game or Chip-
pewa poker and pow-wows would be
held for weelts. Everything went off
so quietly, and without display that if
it had !not been for the crowds of
Chippewas on the streets, it might
have been any other day of the year.
The Indian has become a substantial
citizen, has forsaken his pagan ways ;
except at certain times and except for
national dress which they still cling
to they couldn't be told from any
other citizen. | It is pleasing in one
way but lamentable in another, for if

ihe Heathen Chinee, of Bret

irte's ; poemi was not in it with the
present day bootlegger The Heathen
Chinee had an ace or two up his
sleeve, but |he bootleggers have a
trick or two in the barrel that heats
the sleeve all hollow. One of their
tricks was shown in a recent case in
New York City where a wealthy im-
porter paid $16,000 for 35 barrels of
water. | [

Of course,! it sounds unreasonable
b think that anyone would accept a
I arrel of 'whiskey without testing it.
This is what the importer did. He
rampled whiskey from every one of
the 35 | barrels and found it good
'.'hereupon he turned over the check
'o the sellers.

Later when he wished to decant the
whiskey he found the flow stopped
when less tjian a ballon had been
drawn off. Investigation showed that
a container! had been arranged • to
cover the bunghole of the barrel' and
had been filled with a gallon of whis-
key. Every other barrel had been pre-
pared the same way. Instead of 35
barrels; of whiskey the purchaser se-
cured 35 gallons for his $16,000, and
several! hundred gallons of wateer.

The sellers of the water were ar-
rested ilater,! as they were about to

Last week's issue of the Karlstad
Advocate .contains a statement of the
business done by the Co-o] lerative
creamery of that village, a mo st cred
itable showing, which reads
lows:

"The Karlstad Co-operative
ery held its annual meeting
afternoon. About 25 shareholders
were in attendance at the meeting.

'The creamery has done a | record
business the past year. In 1920, a
total of 82,000 pounds of butter was
made and during the past year 125,-
000 pounds were manufactured! at the
local plant, an increase of 55 per cent
and Manager Fred Johnson says he
expects that the 1922 output will ex-
ceed that of the past year. Approxi-
mately $38,447.73 was paid to patrons.
The books show a loss of $600: jfor the
year. This loss was all suffered dur-
ing the first few months of tlie year
when the production was low and the
market off. The creamery has been
running on a very close price margin,
paying up to New York extras prices
and down to only 1 cent under.

"It was decided at the board meet-
ing to pay for the coming year J2 cents
under New York extras and more if
the market . warranted. The local
creamery has been paying a great deal
more for cream and as a result has
enjoyed a steadily growing patronage

'The following officers were elected
at the meeting: William Stein, pres-
ident; C. F. Johnson, vice president;
Fred A. Johnson, secretary-treasurer;

i OH BO! A WHISKY WELL.

jSome people are born lucky and
othersj merely live in Knoxville, Tenn.
The prohibition enforcement officers
in! their search around that city found
a J "well" of whisky in a* residential
section. The "well" was a copper con-
tamer, which held 300 to 400 gallons
of whisky, and was buried 10 feet un-
der ground. A pump brought it to
the surface and the owner of the well
supplied his customers at all hours
for as; large a quantity of moonshine
as they wished. The., outfit was con-
fiscated and many would-be purchas-
ers of | whisky were forced to explain
the object of their visit to the prem-
ises, before the news of the confisca-
tion became public property.

O TEMPORA! O MORES!

"Girls have changed a whole lot
since the time they used to retire' to
put powder on their noses," exclaimed
Johnson.

I "They sure have!" agreed Thomp-
son. "I called on Miss Sallie last
nightj and she sent word down by her
maid Oiat. she wasn't painted yet, but
would ;be right down."

HOW THEY GET THAT WAY

What's the connection between long
hair on a. man and eccentricity?"
asked Williams.

I don't know," said Jackson, Vbut
I've often wondered if they wore long
hair because they are eccentric or
whether they get eccentric by wear-
ing their hair long."

the farmers on his proposed resolu-
tion stabilizing the price of wheat by
action of congress. It developed that
several farmers were npt in sympathy
with the idea, contending that *the
solution to present farm ills lay in
other_ directions. ■ Hans Anton made

clear cut talk in which he asserted
that the disasters attending sroall
grain farming was notJ an unmixed
blessing-— every new country has tine
sam e experience, he stated, an8 the
sooner farmers diversify to the end
that something is put back in the soil,
instead of taking everything out —
the sooner will the farmers be on a
sure road to prosperity. He said he
would favor government fixing of
grain prices if it could be demonstrat-

great on the tax payers of the, na-

W. J. Brown attacked the resolution

on the federal reserve system, which
he said was fundamentally sound, but
improperly administere 1. He charged
that funds intended to relieve agri-
culture had been diverted to the uses
of stock gamblers through the chan-
nels of Wall Street banks, where six-
ty per cent of the funds were con-

C. L. Hansen, of the First National

made a plea for the country bank-

Fast Down-State Five to Perform
Here Friday and Saturday

The Cambridge basket ball team
will arrive Friday for a two-game
series with Coach Connell's aggrega-
tion in the evening and on Saturday
evening, January 20 and 21, at the
Auditorium. N

Cambridge is represented by a
strong five this year, they having on
their team Martin Norton, a star of
quite some "rep," who has been cred-
ited by Chicago experts with being
the fastest high school basketeer in
the country. They will also have in
their lineup the Louden brothers, who
appeared on the same team here
about three weeks ago when they
played with Excelsior. The senior
Louden played with Thief River Falls
in their two games with Two Harbors
last week.

It is not yet known whether Carl-
son, injured in last Saturday's tilt
with the Two Harbors quint, will ap-
pear with th e ! local men for the two
games with Cambridge. The "Swede"
has shown great improvement since
his injury and it would not be at
all surprising if he is out fighting
for the team Friday and Saturday.
Hpltzknecht, who was also hurt, is
again out for practice each evening,
and will be in the lineup against
Cambridge, it is thought.

u calculate in almost

two millions, especially where it con:

There was received at the Fanners
Co-operative creamery in Thief River
Falls during tie past year in plain
figures 1,794,4£ 5 pound of cream,
from which . 625,335 pounds of butter
was made, ■■ of i rtiich citizens of .Thief
River Falls consumed 123,925 pounds.
Farmers of Pennington county who
furnished this almost staggering
amount of dair y products received as
their share ar proximately $275,000.
Many of the patrons received individ-
ual checks of r lore than $3,500, there
being several £core who reached the
$1,000 mark.

Figures presented to The Tribune
yesterday by I. Englestad, secretary
;ociatron, indicate thaj;

„ __. „ J jsed has been the most

successful in the history of the local
association by nore than' 26 per cen
and that next ,'ear promises an evei
larger increase. There has been an ad
dition in the lumber of patrons o;
more than 15 per cent and many o:
the individual ;>atrons have increase'
the number of pounds of cream mar|
keted by about the same percentage

Starting in 1907 with a total
89,017 pounds of butterfat receivei
it has steadily mounted down througl
the years unti 1921 shcjws a grant
total of 531,828 pounds' of butterfat
received. In 1908 there was 106,795
pounds of.but;erfat; 1910,. 160,048
pounds; 1911, 182,270 pounds. Thp
year 1912, how sver, showed a decrease
when 128,483 p rands of butterfat were
received, which is the only year in
the history of 1 he association that has
failed to show \ marked increase out
side of 1917, w len receipts fell a little
more than 5,000 pounds. Figures for
1913, 1914 and 1915 are not available,
but 1916 shows that 309,058 pounds
were received; 1917 fell a trifle when
302,646 pounds were received. In 1918
there was 363,106 pounds; 1919, 427;-
' 690; 1920, 416,680. Last year the rec-
ord shows that 531,828 pounds of but-
terfat was extracted from the 1,-
794,495 pounds of cream handled by
the association

Figures presented by the associa-
tion secretary present an interesting
study from an economic standpoint in
that it appear; the amount received
per pound for butter serves as a
barometer to tie consumption of but-
ter. The yeais prior to 1918, when
butter retailed at from 23 cents to
about 30 cents per pound were time's
that the consi mption of butter was
the highest, comparatively. The war,
with its high prices and conservation
of food, apparently cut down on but-
ter consumpticn, as creamery butter
then retailed for upwards from 45
cents-per pounl and its high cost pre-
vented many f :om enjoying its pleas-
ant flavor. "When the downward trend
came in the price of creamery pro-
ducts, the am rant of consumption
steadily rose. Butter prices were at
peak in 1919 and 1920, when good
creamery butte r retailed at an average

leave it to you to figure out the per-
centage of increase.

"Butter, butter, who's got the but-
ter?" |

Thief River Falls has, and oodles of
it. When a creamery gets to doing
business on ithe million and two mil-
lion pounds of cream basis, somebody
has got to step aside and let us pass.
The reason for the phenomenal growth
in cream receipts in Thief River Falls
is the most obvious thing in the world.
There is no speculation on the part of
the farmer fiiat feeds dairy cattle, and
the progressive farmer needs no in-
struction from outside sources when
it comes to pointing out how best to
overcome the disastrous effects of low
grain prices and the present almost
stagnant market. Whether relief will
come to he who "sticks to the ship'
of small graining farming, this news-
paper is unable to say — we hope so —
but present ^conditions do not indicate
that such will be the case for at least
a year or two. The grain market, as
everyone knows, is controlled -largely
by the world market, Liverpool, and
when there; is no demand from this
source there can be no certainty as
to prices, demand or anything else.
Besides the! income from products of
the field is. but an annual event at
best in this part of the United. States,
whereas dairying, whether it be on a
large or small scale is an all-year
proposition with the farmer that real-
ly goes into; it on a businesslike basis,
determined that therein lies his salva-
tion and the only method by which he
can rise supreme above his present
difficulties. :

That business jn general recognizes
this paramount fact, has culminated,
as told of in last Tuesday's issue of
The Tribune, in a Thief River Falls
banking institution announcing that
they have placed at the disposal of a
disbursing committee the sum of $10,-
000, which is to be parcelled out to
farmers in need of funds with which
to purchase dairy, cattle, the only
stipulation being that cows of the
blooded variety be bought.

Assuredly the farmers of Penning-
ton county and northwestern Minne-
sota are coming to realize that dairy-
ing is the business best suited to this
section and' as the industry of the
permanent variety.

According to C. G. Selvig, presi-

age engineer of U. S. Indian Bureau
expects to send Red Lake Drainage
report recently submitted by Red Lake
Drainage and Conservancy board to

er . Burke is hoped for. Viewers on

Interior and War departments. Ever
since February 21, 1921, when con-
gress passed the Red \ Lake bill ac-
tive work has been put on Red Lake

when the legislature on April 19 last
appropriated funds for (the surveys.

On October 28 a preliminary hear-

cumstantial evidence about the move-
ments of Gummer the night of the

Lorinda Ardith Jensen, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Jensen, who

It is a lengthy one including over 16

HIGH SCHOOL WINS.

Locals Defeat Mahnomen at Basket-
\ balll by 19 to 6 Score.

In a game quite devoid of snappy
action but ' in which the local high
school team outplayed the visiting five,
Mahnpmen was swamped las night at
the Auditorium by a score of 19 to 6.

"Buster" Ralston played a star
game; for Thief River Falls. "Kip"
LaBree sustained an injury to his an-
kle in the early stages of the game
and had toJetire. The first half ended
10 to [4 in favor of the local high team.

The attendance was very poor —
mighty slim — in fact, too tiny to be of
any encouragement to the warriors
who go forth to battle for the honor of
Thief River. The lineup:

price of abou

ward trend it
noticeable, the

64 cents per pound.

Last year, however, when the down-

prices became more
amount of butter con-
sumed in Thii if River Falls showed
an increase over the preceding year
of almost 30,000 pounds. j

Of the 625,335 pounds of butter
manufactured \t the local creamery
during the year just passed, 398,652
pounds were si ipped to outside points,
considered by officials of the local
association a lighly satisfactory rec-
ord. As above stated, 123,925 pounds
went to local consumption and 3,758
pounds were purchased by . farmer
patrons of the creamery.

Either residents of Thief River
Falls are extrc vagant users of butter
and smear it on mighty thick, or else
folks in 1907 lid not consider butter
so. essential to their well-being. The
amount of butter consumed by local
residents jumj ed from 3,078 pounds

Anyway ;none df the men of Thief

evening parties lately as the result of
stepping on the trailing skirts of the
women.

If there has been any misunder-
standing about the cashing of certifi-
cates issued by the highway depart-
ment to men hauling grave! on the
Babcock.road between this city and
Holt, the matter I was fully! cleared
up yesterday at a conference between
local bankers and Engineer Sewell, of
the maintenance division of t|he high-
way department, .with headquarters
at Crookston. The banks of Thief
River have never: been unwilling to*
cash such certificates or warrant?,
but it seems there has beenl a slight
misunderstanding concerning |the tiint
these warrants were required to /run
and this was fully made clear yester-
day by Mr. Sewell. I

Mr. Sewell made a brief talk to
the Commercial club membe:B at the
noon luncheon, explaining /road ac-
tivities in general and' endei by in-
viting the local populace /to journey
to Crookston in large numbers when
the forthcoming basket bail game
takes place between the locals and

the defeat of our favorites. Nay, nay,
Bro. Sewell, it can't be done! You're

simply must disappoint you this time.

to the state meeting to be held in
Minneapolis February 7, and George
C. Streeter was elected alternate. Mr,
Stebbins favors a change in the pres-

ing. He favors a tax on gasoline, and
a reduction of the auto tax to an
average of $5 upon each car, regard-
less of the original purchase value of
the machine. By placing the tax on
gas, Mr. Stebbins asserts no hard-
ship will fall upon the owner who
seldom uses his car, but will more
evenly distribute the tax upon those
who make the greatest use of our
highways. It is a proposition which
has many supporters in the state, and
Mr. Stebbins states that he intends to
place the matter before the state as
sociation for action at the February

BETTER LOCAL ROADS.

The Babe 3ck good roads plan is 'gen-
erally credted throughout Minnesota
with bringing remarkable results oil
the state t: unit highway system,! and
now Commissioner Babcock announces
an makes ample provision
for equal results on the local roads
and points the way to accomplish
them.

The Trib ine believes that Penning-
ton county ind township road officials,
appreciatin; f their responsibilities; will
act favoratly and promptly upon the
;r's suggestion.
According to official figures, Min-
nesota funds for local road purposes
xeeded by some four ! mil
lions of dollars the total for use on
the state t-uhk highways. It is true
are many more miles of
than of trunk highways,
true that the trunk high-
ways carry about four-fifths of the
traffic, and engineers assert: that the
highway w;ar is an important factor

in determir ing the cost of improve-
ment and i laintenance.
. Commissi aner Babcock declares (that
under his flan more liberal provision
is made fo:' the local roads than for
the trunk routes, especially now 'that
the authority for issuing bonds! for
trunk work has expired. His organi-
■ zation havir g demonstrated during the
last eight 01 nine months the big bene-
fits attainalle on the trunk highways,
the public i ; inclined to accept at full
face value! the proposal by Commis-
sioner Babock to get a like measure
of results on the remaining roads.

The supplementary plan, or more
correctly, tie follow-up proposal, is
briefly this:

ELLIS ISLAND REFORMS

Despite vigorous official denial of
recent charges made by Miss Gene-
vieve Forbes with respect to deplor-
able conditions at Ellis island it now
develops ! that radical changes have
been made as a result of the expose.

Miss Forbes went abroad and came
back as an alien for the purpose of
investigating at first hand the alleged
abuses at the island and her stories
we're replete with human interest.

Whether federal officials were cog-
nizant of these conditions or not, the
fact remains that following publica-
tion of :Miss Forbes' charges steps
were taken to correct the abuses. It
is* to be : hoped ' that prospective citi-
zens now will leave Ellis island with
a kindly feeling toward our govern-
ment and toward the American people
instead of with a+feeling of horror
and resentment, as oftentimes was the
case before these reforms were made.

I THE NEWBERRY CASE

Senator Newberry has been given a
vote of confidence in the senate by a
majority: of fiv e votes. The Demo-
crats voted solidly against him. Sena-
tori Watson of Georgia announced his
intention; of voting for Senator New-
berry, but he was persuaded not to
be | present. The Democrats made
the^r objection to Senator Newberry
on political grounds, which was proven
by Ithe frequent use of "Administra-
tion" in debate, rather than making it
straight i argument, as . did i Senator
Borah, \yhq voted against Mr.: New-
berry.

Of the few Republicans who voted
against -Senator Newberry, we would
not] trust j the judgment of Senator La-
Follette, j Norris, Kenyon or Capper,
as against the judgment of Senators
Nelson and Kellogg of Minnesota,
Lenroot ; of Wisconsin, Stirling of
South Dakota and McCumber of North
Dakota, i All of the latter senators
represent purely agricultural states.
They heard the evidence and, if they
say that; Senator Newberry did not
violate the law, The Journal accepts
thai; statement, regardless of the
amount of money expended.

The state primary law in Michigan
does not: limit the amount of money
that the state committee may expend.
The United States court reversed he
state decision holding Mr. Newberry
responsible. '

l^ow, as t-- h h e ameunt of money it-
self* At the first announcement,
$190,000 seems to be an enormous sum
to spend in a senatorial campaign, and
it is. However, it costs a great deal
of money under the primary law to
educate the voters, if it is well done.
All lone has to do is to take a lead
pencil and cover the state of Minne-
sota with the proper printing and the
proper amount lof speaking, the get-
ting out of the vote, and th e total will
be Startling.

The trouble with Michigan was that
the partisans of Henry Ford and Sen-
ator Newberry were both anxious to
win! and both factions had money. It
was'easy' to get money for either can-
didate, and in the interest of both
there was spent a large sum of money.

When we reflect back to Senator
Stephenson's campaign in Wisconsin,
and recall the part Senator LaFoI-
lette played in it, his objection tn
spending \ money does not go far with
Senator Capper is one of those
who advised the farmers ,through his
farm papers, to hold wheat for three
dollirs, and his judgment in the case
does not go far with us. Senator Nor-
ms s not dependable in his judgment
and some embarrassing questions
might be put to Senator Kenyon.
. Senator Borah made a straight ad-
dress against the seating of Newber-
ry. I He did not base it on the theory
thati Mr. jNewberry himself was guilty
but jthat -after an expenditure of such
a sum of money, no senator should be
permitted to sit in the chamber. He
made this argument, submitted with-
outlpartisan bias. The' single trouble
witti his; argument was that Senator
Newberry was found not guilty by
everybody, even Senator Borah, and
the iaw applies to this point. Another
interesting phase of the incident is
that air the Republicans denounced

the amount of money expended, so
that the iopinion that the amount was
excessive was . unanimous in the sen-
ate in both parties— but with agree-
ment on that point, no proof lay
nst Senator Newberry. — Minneap-

state will lose this distinction unless
som e measures are taken to protect
the largest of the big game family
remaining in North Amrica, sports-
men assert.

Forest rangers and timber cruisers
who frequent the dense, sections of
the north woods have noticed the
rapidly diminishing herds of moose.
In this connection it has been said
that settlers^and shackers probably
are responsible for the slaughter of
large numbers of moose, especially
during the present winter, because of
the alleged, "hard times."

Because of the advance of settle-
ment and construction of good roads,
the moose have been driven further
back into the swamps and impassable
jungles until it has become very dif-
ficult to hunt them, and wheii one is
shot it is almost impossible to get it
out.

DEALING WITH DEFECTIVES

In his talk before the Open Forum
last Sunday, Judge Orr brought out
the unpleasant fact that there are in
this state some thirty thousand
feeble-minded, of whom only three
thousand are in institutions. All the
rest, so far they are of marriage
able age and so far as they are noc
inhibited by special circumstances,
are, under our laws, free to marry
and to perpetuate their taint in the!
offspring. That the issue of parents
who are buth feeble-minded are all
feeble-minded, and that two out of
three children of a union in which one
parent is defective are feeble-minded
is a recognized fact. Yet so far
Minnesota has, done practically noth-
ing to regulate or to discourage the
multiplication of defectives, who will
feed, in constantly increasing num-
bers, the jails, reformatories and asy-
lums of. the commonwealth and who
always will constitute an increasing
moral and social menace.

The problem is by no means a sim-
ple one. How to prevent effectually
the marriage of the mentally lefec-
tive without subjecting the normal to
humiliating examinations; where" to
draw the line between the normal
and the subnormal; whether the prin-
ciple of exclusion should also be ex-
tended to those suffering from trans-
missible disease are only a few of the
practical questions involved — ques-
tions that account, in large .measure,
for the failure of this and of most of
the other states to take steps lo put
end to an obvious and incontro-
vertible evil of constantly growing
proportions.

But because the problem is difficult
constitutes no reason for neglecting
it. Its very difficulties suggest the
desirability of careful and painSak-
ing effort at a solution. In snort,
because of its complications and be-
cause of its financial, social and mor-
al consequences, it ought not to be
dealt with by the usual legislative
methods. It is important enough to
call for the creation of a special :om-
mission to give careful study to the
problem and to recommend proper
measures of procedure— Pioneer Press.

^SING OF "DEER AND MOOSK
Reports gathered since the recent
bigl game hunting season ^ closed in
Minnesota show that moose and deer
in the Gopher state are on the road
to extinction, according to the Duluth
Sportsmen's club, one of the promin-
ent organizations of its kind in the
state, which has begun an' active
campaign to devise plans to protect
large members of the wild forest
family. -

With the passing of the big game,
Minnesota will lose one of its attrac-
tive 1 features which is known through-
out the United States, members of this
club maintain. Minnesota is said to
be the only state where hunters are
allowed to shoot moose. Soon

FARMERS ASK CREDIT AID

A meeting of farmers and business-
men of western Minnesota took place
at Ortonville ■ Saturday for the pur-
pose of obtaining direct aid for the
farmers through the .War Finance
corporation, and with that in view
the following telegram was sent to
President Harding:

We believe that official circles at
Washington and the businessmen of
the large cities ar e not fully aware of
the dire calamity that has befallen the
agricultural interests of the nation,
and especially the grain growing dis-
tricts of the northwest, and of the
great need for immediate and direct
relief by the government through the
War Finance corporation. This cor-
poration has helped directly only the
large banks in the cities and has not
afforded relief to the farmers and but
little to the country banks.

"We believe the government should
extend direct relief to the farmers be-
cause of the emergency' that exists,
due largely to government control of
the price of farm products during the
war.

"We believe farmers and business
men of each county who personally
know the character ,and standing of
the farmers are better able to p#ss
upon the security offered by the farm-
er than agricultural or other commit-
tees in distant . cities who have nc
knowledge of these things, and there-
fore believe such co-operative agricul-
tural corporations should be permitted
to deal directly with the War Finance
corporation, and that the approval and
guarantee of securities offered by such
county units should be accepted by the
War Finance corporation."

Suppose you think "Bill" Wrigley
spent more than a million dollars last
year to say: "Five cents before the
war, five cents during the war, and
five cents after the war" just because
he thought the newspapermen of the

generosity. Well, you guessed wrong.

The Field of Politics

The political ant hill is showing un-
usual activity within the week, and
it does not appear that hard times
is going to have any depressing ef-
fect upon those afflicted with the itch
for office. In other words, the dear
public may calmly settle.down to the
conviction that a man will be ,f ound
for every position of honor and trust.
» * *

The important announcement of the
week came from Crookston, when C.
G. Selvig was entered as a candidate
for congress. That Mr. Selvig had
designs on the congressional seat
held by Steenerson has been a mat-
ter of common knowledge for some
time. Ole Sageng, of Dalton, threw
his, hat in the ring two weeks ago,
so the congressional race may now
be said to be on. Otter Tail has 21
votes in the district conventipri, which
gives Old quite a hand hold to start
with. He has always been popular
with the voters, and is one of the
most aggressive campaigners in the

state.

* * *

Present indications are that Mr.
Steenerson will have nothing to do
with the convention, inasmuch as a
convention campaign involves a great
deal of expense and does not settle
the nomination. If the Nonpartisan
League should put up a candidate, the
nominee of the convention, whoever
he is, will have two fights to make,
and Steenerson's friends prefer to
make theirs in the June primary
squarely upon the issues.

* * . *

In this neck of the woods people are
hot very keen about the convention
anyway. Pennington county, for in-
stance, has three votes, under the rule
which eliminated the delegates at
jarge. It has been the practice to al-
low each county from three to five
delegates at large, which gave the
smaller counties in the state a slight
voice in the deliberations of the con-
ention. If this rule is to be aband-
oned, as has now been done- in the
congressional districts, a few of the
larger counties will be in absolute con-
trol and hence there will h e a steadily
decreasing interest in party politics
in the smaller counties.

* »' #

The demand for five delegates at
large has always been pressed in the
country, to hold in check Hennepin,
Ramsey and St. Louis. With this
barrier apparently about to be scrap-
ped, we move to strike out the names
of 83 counties in future convention
calls.

* * *

The new convention system has
added a 'great deal of expense to the
election system without any corre-
sponding benefit. It will cost Pen-
nington county $1000, and isn't worth
a nickel so far as anyone .can notice.

* * *

Legislative politics are warming
up, and if dame rumor is to be relied
upon, Pennington county will probably
be the battle ground of one of the
fiercest engagements of the present
war. Watch future issue of the Tri-
bune for reliable news from the west-
ern front.

South St. 5 aul, Jan. 19.— The cen-
tralized livestock marketing agency,
established srx months ago by Minne-
sota farmers today announced a j 25
per cent patronage dividend, amount-
ing to more than all the money paid
into its treasury by its member asso-
ciations. It also announced an 8 per
cent stock diridend. j

The issuing; of the dividend, officers
said, means that the Central Co-op-
erative Commission association has
handled the largest volume of busi-
ness on the South St. Paul livestock
market at onj-half the cost of market-
ing through non-competitive agencies.
The total cividend to be paid by the
association, o i business done from Au-
gust 8 to De cember 31, 1921, amounts
to 519,124.22

Its total- receipts in commissions
amount to (nly ?73,360.85, according
to state auditors. The payment of ! the
dividend coi stitutes . a return to j the
farmers of one-fourth of all the nion
ey they have paid to their central sell
ing organiz ition • for handling their
livestock. 1 he actual saving to farm
ers is twice the amount of the divi
" dend. officers said, because the farm-
ers' associat ion has handled the f £ rm
ers'. livestock at commission rates ap-
proximately 25 per cent lower than
the prevailing charges.

After pajing the dividend anc all
expenses, the marketing agency will
have a surplus of several thousand
dollars.

„. „. The dividend amounts

52,349 more than the total paid in to
the capital of the association.

has innounced that J. S. (Joe) Mont-

Mr. Montgomery was closely asso'ciat-
edwilh Mr. McKerrow until his death,
having served with him in livestock

4 MATCH-MAKING SOLDIER
When Annetta Morandi, twenty-
two, from Naples, received a proposal
of marriage from Sergt. Joseph Fos-
ter, late veteran of the A. E. F., but
now on recruiting duty in Pittsburg,
she wrote answering that she would
jbe happy to marry her dear American
j friend, whom she had met during the
iwarj— but — she had two sisters, Julia,
nineteen, and Francisca, seventeen,,
iwhom she could not elave alone in
; Naples. ^

The sergeant had solved knottier/
! problems during the war and since
■■ he was in the recruiting service /he
' decided it was up to him to 1, recruit
husbands for his girl's sisters.'

His brother was the first/ recruit.

To him he sang the praises' of Julia.

: Since this brother, Henry,' had been

■ a sailor during the war/the romance

of the thing appealed ,t'o him. When

\ Julia had been written to and had-

i accepted the proposal of Henry the

i question came up of how to secure

: a husband for Francisca. He knew

the' Morandi girls were peaches and

i decided that since they were, such

!- a good thing he wanted to keep them

: in [his family.

Not having another brother to sac-
i rifice on the altar of matrimony he
sought out his cousin, ; Fred Martin,
: and told of the charms of Francisca.
: Martin was a trifle harder to land— ,
I but when he did fall— he fell hard.

- the result was that the three girls

; with flashing smiles landed in New

; York City recently and were met at

; the dock by the three Pittsburg boys..

; The sergeant acted as the guide and

introducer and the three couples,.

properly sorted out, advanced on the

license department of th e New York

they departed for a honeymoon in

City hall. After a- triple ceremony

Pittsburgh: . .

Being informed in the schools of the
dangers of lack of nutrition, the chil-
dren of Thief River Falls on arriving
home immediately make a grand rush
for the doughnut jar.

tour of ;m drought regions 6i
liussia has written for the press,
of Europe a id America a series of
articles. It took a man like Gibbs
to stir the var-hardened world "to
a realization of the fact that more
people are in the verge of death

om famine than per-:

nations combined

terrible years of the

war. So well has Mr. Gibbs per-:
formed his ;ask and so forcefully
has he calbd upon the civilized
world to realize its responsibility
that even ; governments are now,
■ being stirred to action. Mr. Gibbs
in his article, has set down facts
about Russi.i which all of us need
to know. \'e reprint it below in
full.

It is unlucky for 25,000,000 ' peas-
ants in southern Russia that they
have no food to eat at a time when
the world is ;ired of tales of human
misery, sick cf its own troubles, and
busy, with passionate selfishness, in
trying to cure its own maladies. Those
Russian peasants have been very un-
/ lucky! ^

First the war came and their sons
were taken from plows and fields to
fight the Germans. They obeyed be-
cause they/ \*ere Russian peasants,
even when thoy had to advance upon
German, artillery and machine guns

.without rifles

or without- ammunition,

and were slaughtered in droves like
silly sheep. bTears later, after long
slaughter — an I the harvests were not
so- rich down on the Volga and the
Don because young labor was scarce
—some of t lem murmured, "Why
should w e figH men against whom we
have no hatred? Why should we fight
endlessly at tl.e command of men who
grow rich out of war, who do nothing

of Russia

one by one, little skeletons j before
deat i and burial.

Wamen weep in the villages about
Sam ira and Saratoff when they show
their, empty cupboards, and theityphu.
stricken children lying under bundles
of rags, too weak to walk. But that
weeping is only when strangers come
The | Russian peasants who have no
with; promise of help or worus of pity,
luck,; and not much hope, 'now, do not
weep many tears.

They stare out with dull eyes, upon
their misery and wait patiently for
some poor chance of rescue or death.
It is difficult to get about in those
famine districts. Few men who have
come back with personal evidence of
this human tragedy have touched more
than; the fringe of it, the outer edge
beyond the railheads. But those who
havel gone deepest into the famine
districts say that it is worse as the
villages are more remote, most fright-
ful v/here ^communication is most dif-
ficult;. At the railway, stations the
pictures are always the same, crowds
of quiet peasant folk with skin drawn
tight about their facial bones, and
sunken eyes which lock up pleadingly,
while the children who cling to gaunt
men and shrunken women cry but in-
cessantly words tha ! : -"?-.n. "A bit of
bread, little uncle, a bit of bread!"

It is monotonous, miserable, dreary,
and these I Russian peasants are un-
lucky as usual because all who try
to tell the tale of their suffering to
the outside world find a bleak indif-
ference, even a hoj-tile spirit in their
audience, j The world's imagination
has been deadened by three years of
appeal for, starving people.

New Horrors in Winter

But now that winter is upon them
the horror deepens. For millions there
can be no chance of rescue, and for
the others only the chance that the
charity of the world will be quick and
generous, not held back by political
hatred or cold distrust. Russia can-
not save her own people. Without
outside help they will be lost.

Even the tides of private charity
flowing into British and American re-
lief missions do but touch the frontiers
of the famine stricken land.

Following essay submitted by Lois
Nicholson, in state and national "Good
Roads Essay Contest," received hon-
orable mention by local judges.

All roads, whether federal, state or
county highways, should be built with
the idea of safety.

Good roads not only mean a saving
of gasoline, motor tires and farm pro-
duce, but a saving of human lives as
well. Good roads cost money, but
they save more than they cost. 1

Grown people as well as children
must be educated to realize the im-
portance of good roads and how to
make them safe for traffic.

When the country was new, the
roads consisted of only a trail, but it
was then comparatively safe as the
traffic was light. Where those old
trail roads are used, ' they should be
straightened where it is necessary to
cross a stretch of low ground, a suit-
able grade not less than 20 feet wide
should be constructed. Provision
should be made for a water course
where necessary. This should be a
good bridge or a large concrete pipe,
which once installed, requires no ex
pense for upkeep.

There is a variety of materials that
may be used for the roadbed. It may
be made of sand-clay, burned clay,
madacadm, concrete, asphalt, granite,
gravel, wood blocks or bricks, but it
should be free from any vegetable
matter, which might decay and cause
holes in the roadJ In the south, brok-
en sea shells are used instead of
gravel.

It is very important to have the
roadbed properly drained so that cars
will not skid and tip over on the slip
pery grade.

Suitable signs or markers should be
placed at all turns in the road so as
to prevent drivers from making the
turns too fast. All railroad crossings
should be well marked and the high-
way should be level with the railroad
track or bridge over or run under it.

Where two highways meet, the road
should not be obstructed by buildings
or trees, so the driver may be able to
see if he is about to meet another ve-
hicle, i

The road should not have sharp
turns and it should be laid along the
shortest route between centers of dis-
tribution and not through all of the
towns along the way.

There are a number of things that
cause accidents, all of which could be
lessened if people were educated along
the right lines.

The highway should not ruri'through
main streets of towns, by schools or
churches, or children's playgrounds.
Drivers of vehicles should turn to the
right to allow another driver to pass
and the driver passing another car
416 -should drive to the left. ,

418 j Careless :driving and cars driven by
504 intoxicated persons are the cause of
4 78 hundreds of accidents. Dimmers
should be used on cars at night, and
people should never be allowed to run
a car with only one light.,

Children should not be allowed to
run cars; in fact no one who does not
426 know and obey the traffic rules should
438 he permitted to run cars.

Farm Bureau Calls
for Machinery jCut

Lower Prices Is Public Ne-
cessity, Farme rDele'ga-
tion Tells Board

Eeduction in Prices of Pris-
on Made Machinerv May
Show Good Results

Prices of farm machinery manufac-
tured at the | state penitentiary must,
be drastically reduced, representatives
of the Minnesota Farm Bureau feder-
ation told the state board of control
at a conference last week.

The demand for reductions in farm
machinery prices was one of the first
acts of the new farm bureau adminis-
tration. The delegation representing
the farmers was headed by J. F. Reed,
new president of the state federation,
and includd F. E. Lammers, vice pres-
ident, and J. J. Jacobson, George Free-
man, Thomas E. Cashman arid J. D.
'Pyle, directors. I

The farmer's dollar is worth only
61 cents in comparison with the price-
of products he has to buy, tile farm,
bureau representatives said Prosper-
ity cannot be restored until the cost
of machinery and other commodities
the farmer must purchase is brought
down somewhere near the value of the
things he' has to sell, they declared.
The penitentiary, a public institution,
serving the whole state, is now sup-
ported entirely by the/ farmers, Mr.
Reed said. He argued that machinery
prices should be cut and all citizens,
if necessary, share the expense of
maintaining the prison. The machiiir
ery plant was- established originally
to compete with private manufactur-
ers and compel them to charge rea-
sonable prices, the farmers jpointed
out. A drastic price cut is necessary r
they said, to make the prison machin-
ery plant a real competitor with prU
vate firms and carry out the intent of
the law.

PARENT^ EATING CHILDREN

Horrible Reports from Famine Dis-
tricts Are Received.

The following gruesome details of.
famine conditions in Russia was taken
from a recent report to the Associated-
Press; ! ■ ■ .

"Cannibalism, reported as existing,
in Samara province by a delegate to
the ninth congress of the soviet three:
weeks ago, has become general in the
Volga region, according to Rosta re-
ports. Reviewing the latest jreports
from the famine districts, the Russian
wireless news service states that
cases of parents going insane and eat-
ing their children are frequently men-
tioned. I

It does not matter how sopn help
comes, it will fail to save hundreds of
thousands of peasants," one statement
said. "The horses have'all been eaten-
and the trees for the coming year will
be leafless, for the buds have been
eaten.

"All food substitutes are gone and
famine and disease rule supreme."

Following essay submitted by Lois
Nicholson in state and national "Good
Roads Essay Contest," received hon-
orable mention by local judges.

All roads, whether federal, state or
county highways, should be built with |
the idea of safety.

Good roads not only mean a saving
of gasoline, motor tires and farm pro
duce, but a saving of human lives a:
well. Good roads cost money, but
they save more than they cost.

Grown people as well as children
must be educated to realize the im-
portance of- good roads and how to
make them safe for traffic.

When the country was new, the
roads consisted of only a trail, but it
was then comparatively safe as the
traffic was light. Where those old
trail roads are used, they should be
straightened where it is necessary to
cross a stretch of low ground, a suit
able grade not less than 20 feet wide
should be constructed. Provision
should be made for a water course
where necessary. This should be a
good bridge or a large concrete pipe,
which once installed, requires no ex-
pense for upkeep.

There is a variety of materials that
may be used for th e roadbed. It may
be made of sand-clay, burned clay,
madacadm, concrete, asphalt, granite,
gravel, wood blocks or bricks, but it
should be free from any vegetable
matter, which might decay and cause
holes in the road. In the south, brok-
en sea shells are used instead of
gravel.

It is very important to have the
roadbed properly drained so that c£rs
jwill not skid and tip over on the slip-
pery grade.

' Suitable signs or markers should be
placed at all turns in the road so as
to prevent drivers -from making the
turns too fast. All railroad crossings
should be well marked and the high-
way should be leveLwith the railroad
track or bridge over or run under it.

Where two highways meet, the road
should not be obstructed by buildings
or trees, so the driver may be able to
see if he is about to meet another ve-
hicle.

The road should not have' sharp
turns and it should be laid along the
shortest route between centers of dis-
tribution and not through all of the
towns along the way.

There are 3 number of things that
cause accidentsj all of which could be
lessened if people were educated along
the right lines.

The highway should not run through
main streets of towns, by schools or
churches, or children's playgrounds.
Drivers of vehicles should turn to the

Reduction in Prices-df Pris-
on Made Machinery May
Show Good Results

Prices of farm machinery manufac-
tured at the state penitentiary must
be drastically reduced, representatives
of the Minnesota Farm Bureau feder-
ation told the state board of control.,
at a conference last week.

The demand for reductions in farm
machinery prices was one of the first
acts of the new farm bureau adminis-
tration. The delegation representing
the farmers was headed by J. F. Reed.,
new president of the state federation,
and includd F. E. Lammers, vice pres-
ident, and J. J. Jacobson, George Free-
man, Thomas E. Cashman and J. D.
Pyle, directors.

The farmer's dollar is worth only
61'cents in comparison with the'.price-
of products he has to buy, the farm,
bureau representatives said Prosper-
ity cannot be restored until the cost,
of machinery and other commodities
the farmer must purchase ' s brought
down somewhere near the value of the
things he has to sell, they declared.
The "penitentiary, a public institution,
serving the whole state, is now sup-
ported entirely by the farmers, Mr.
Reed said. He argued that machinery
prices should be cut and all citizens,
if necessary, share the expense of '
maintaining the prison. The machin-
ery plant was established originally
to compete with private manufactur-
ers and compel them to charge rea-
sonable prices, the farmers pointed
out,' A drastic price cut is necessary,,
they said, to make the prison machin-
ery plant a real competitor with pri-
vate firms and carry out the intent of.
the law.

(By Hon. J.

the situation in

R. HOWARD.

R. Howard, president
Bureau Federation)!

When congreis convened last April

the farming-livestock
nation had .become so

tense that a nvmber of Congressmen
who knew the actual condition con^
fronting agriculture resolved it was
time for sometl ing to be done for del
flated agriculture in order to save
not only the ftrmer, but the indust-
ries of the nat ion. They recognized
the key to the situation lay' [largely
in assisting the agriculture to "come
back." They seised also the changed

j conditions. Thdy realized a new era
had come and with it a turn in the

j tide of basic pr aductioris. i

This resulted in the formation oi

that much disc issed group in con-

j gress, the agri :ultural bloc, which

: has to its cred t more agricultural
legislation in tjhe extraordinary ses-j
sion than ever before was passed in a
single sitting of congress. Let me
mention among them the aid to the
Federal Land_b:mks, the War Finance
relief measure, the Packer control
bill, the Grain Exchange control bill;
and the Farm- to-Market road lawi
Each measure passed however, al-j
though classed as agricultural, has
gTeat value to he nation as a wholeJ
The first meeting of the senate 1
agricultural "bl >c" was held in the of-;
fice of the Arierican Farm Bureau
federation in Washington, D. C. The
senators, know:i to be interested in
the agricultural situation, were called
by Senator William S. Kenyon of
Iowa and Graj Silver, . Washington
Representative of the American Farm
Bureau federat on. Senator Kenyon
told his colleagues that it was his'
idea that by Wringing together sen
ators from the middle west and the
south, the principal agricultural sec-j
tions, it would lie possible to bring to;
bear sufficient 20-operative action in
the senate to e lact legislation meas-
ures which wovld relieve agriculture.
He also told tie futility of his and
other senators' endeavors to pass any
kind of remedial or constructive agri-
cultural legislation during the prev-
ious short sessii in of congress.

Thus the agri ;ultural "bloc" had its'
origin. It transcends party lines. It;
has its own cai cus and is not amen
able to the party whip or party disci
pline. Heretofor ! many bills have been
sidetracked simply because of policy
and the domination of leaders who,
would hold up the bills rather than'
risk a division s ilit in the party ranks.!
The "bloc" has thus not only kept 1
new and constitutive measures from'

> the cold storage warehouses of spe-j
cially appointed congressional com-]
mittees; it has also taken measures
out of cold storige and passed them. I
The agricultural "bloc" in the sen-
ate is not sufficiently strong numer-
ically to pass le rislation. Its strength 1
lies in voting ;s a block' and adding 1
that strength to one party of the 1
other according to the way these
parties favor or oppose a measure, id
is the principle of independent vot-|
ing applied to national legislation.

The more tha 1 twenty members are
divided about equally between Demo-j
crats and Republicans, so it is truly
a bi-partisan organization. Most of
the westerners are Republicans and
most of the southerners Democrats!
In the senate "bloc" the western mem--
bers all come from state west or

. Ohio. These men are entitled to com-
mendation, not mly from the farmers'
but from the { eneral public. ' I

The House "Hoc" contains members
from as far east as Pennsylvania and
is also bi-partis an in make-up.

(From j'Notes of Interest.")
Gleaned , on trip of the northern
woods, and as it happened; this is
no "spin up."

It was one of the coldest and ugli-
est winter days. By the way, :there
was a young man, returned soldier,
employed in! the camp and who had
recently married a girl— a few years
younger than he. A bright and beau-
tiful baby girl had already come to
them. The young husband had short-
ly before, arranged with a concern for
"living quarters" in a small room, an
adjunct to th e camp's office. But this
was available no longer and the "acT-
venturers" were obliged to seek 1 some
other abode. All the places were
filled, so the young lady had not suc-
ceeded in obtaining work in the camp
kitchen, as j had been part of their
little plan. \

"I .don't see what that man is think-
ing about-f-taking his wife and: baby
to a place like ;that," remarked Jim,
the barn boss, disapprovingly, to his
fellow lumberjacks, when they had ga-
thered around the huge mmkhouse
stove in the evening. Jim just re-
turned from' the trip, then further re-
lated his taking the young couple,
with their two-year-old chiid, also ac-
companied'by the bride's young broth-
er, to a place about three miles out
from camp, i Their "household- outfit"
consisted of'a'few blankets and other
items of the !most needed kitchen uten-
sils and which were packed down in a
drygoods box.

Here at their hew location, they had
planned to make their home pending
the time daddy was to work in the
woods. The shack had no. door, ex-
cept some boards placed up against
the door opening. The windows- were
broken; there was np floor. When the
barn boss left the party, the girl-wife
was sitting on the trunk, in the shack,
with her iittle one huddled up in a
blanket. i ■ ■

And it is] hardly necessary to add
that she was crying.

HAVE YOU CONTRACTED

THE LATEST DISEASE?

It is frequen
you are right tljan it i;

tly easier to be sure!
it is to go ahead.

Is there 1 a new disease among us
since prohibition and the vogue of
eating for health? "An apple a day
keeps the doctor away" is a slogan
popularized ] by : national advertising.
Following close : on its heels was the
drive made -by the raisin growers of
the Pacific coast, who have been edu-
cating the public up to eating raisins,
for what ailed them and , didn't ail
them. The :more recent campaign to
make yeast ;in edible form popular is
still with us.

It ' was a J combination of the , two-
latter that has ■ been responsible for
the coining of a; name for a new dis-
ease. -A .young lady of Stillwater,
Minn., has been a consistent consumer
of raisin since her childhood. : Re-
cently, to improve her complexion,
she began eating yeast in cak e form.
When the yeast diet reached the stage
o| three cakes a: day it conflicted with
her raisin diet and th e combination
caused her to visit the family physi-
cian, j j

The symptoms complained of were
a slight feeling of elation that was
becoming more pronounced eacW mo-
ment. The 'doctor diagnosed the! case
as intoxication, but on inquiry found
that no liquor had been consumed
Further inquiry and diagnosis brought
Out the fact that fermentation! had
begun inside the young lady from
Stillwater and. going on -in the way it
I did, alcohol j of sufficient quantity to
! intoxicate her was the result, "she
j is continuing her diet but does not
!eat .raisins jand yeast at the same
time. ;

Here is a|good chance for the writ-
ers of limericks to tell what happened.
The first line is furnished freii, as
follows: "There was a young lady
from Stillwater." Fill it out to 'suit

Because of the many misunder-
standings prevalent throughout the
United States regarding the agree-
ment and contract under which the
various railway brotherhoods are em-
ployed and in the face of arguments
pro and con being put forth by both
the railroads and the men, The Tri-
bune comes upon the following article
taken from the official organ of the
14 brotherhoods employed on the
great rail systems of the country,
which contains a statement by Walter
D. Hines, former railroad administra-
tor, wherein he presents numerous
facts and figures regarding the rail-
road situation. In an article headed,
"Hines Defends National Agreement,"
Labor says:

No feature of the railroad problem
has been so persistently misrepresent-
ed by the railroad propagandist's as
the "National Agreement" entered in-
to between the Federal Railroad ad-
ministration and certain organizations
of railroad workers.

Speaking before some commercial
association, "General" Atterbury said
the agreement was costing the roads
$500,000,000 a year. Other railroad
executives made equally extreme
statements, which were quoted and
requoted by newspapers from the At-
lantic to the Pacific. The public was
assured that all that was necessary
to make private operation a glitter-
ing success was to wipe out the "Na-
tional Agreement."

The Labor Board yielded to the
clamor, and the agreement was radic-
ally revised.

Now comes Walker D. Hines, form-
er Federal railroad administrator, and
one of the most capable railroad ex-
ecutives in this country, with the
true story of the agreement. He dis-
cussed the subject in an address be-
fore the American Economic associa-
tion in Pittsburgh. He pointed out
that "one of the most costly branches
of railroad operation is the mainten-
ance of equipment."

Its - cost in. 1919— -the last year of
Federal control— was $1,230,000,000.

Its cosf; in 1920 — the first year of
private control— -was $1,575,000,000,
or an increase of $345,000,000.

The railroad managers have told
the people that this increase was due
to the "iniquitous provisions" of .the
National Agreement. Hines exposed
the falsehood.

"Practically all the basic rules" of
the National Agreement, he said, were
"in effect on numerous roads prior to
the war" and had been applied "to
all the roads by the experienced rail-
road men who were connected with
the Federal railroad ' administration,"
before the national agreement was
drafted. •

The increase of $345,000,000 'in the
cost of maintaining equipment <:ould
not be charged "to the national agree-
ment, because practically all the rules
in th.at document had been in force
in 1920, under private control.

.Mr. Hines called attention to the
fact that the "examples" of the prac-
tical workings of the national agree-
ment which were spread over the
country by the railroads' press agents
were of no real value.

"They were of extreme cases," he
said, "which represented a very small
percentage of the operating cost."

Mr. Hines' statements will not be
ne,ws to the railroad workers. They
knew that the roads' propaganda was
false and misleading, and they did

what they could tojget the truth to the
Railroad Labor Board and to 1 the pub-
lic, i ' !

Witness after witness told the La-
bor Board exactly what Mr. Hines told
the members of the American Eco-
nomic association, but the newspapers,
as a rule, refused! to print the' testi-
mony, and undoubtedly millions of in-
telligent citizens believe that the rail-
roads' troubles are traceable to the
pernicious agreement "forced" on Mc-
Adoo and Hines by militant labor or-
ganizations. These victimsj of rail-
road propaganda would be amazed to
hear that the rules denounced by At-
terbury had been adopted by |"the ex-
perienced railroad men connected with
the Federal administration." ';

The truth is, as! Mr. Hines! has so
clearly pointed out, that the roads in
1920 took advantage of the' govern-
ment guaranty to expend unprecedent-
ed 'sums on maintenance of i equip-
ment, j 1 j-

Much of the money— tens of mil-
lions— was thrown; away. The Inter,
state Commerce commission has prov-
en that through its inquiry into the
contracts between the roads and such
favored concerns as Baldwin's.

Unfortunately, the railroads have
succeeded in keeping the facts from
the people, but gradually the truth
is leaking through:

Miles to Preach

Rev. Albin Larson, Thief
River Falls "Minister, Re-
turns From Visit

Tells Interesting Story of

Work Done by Student

Ministers in North

Many men who; are physically -un-
able! to saw any firewood can yet de-
liver a heavy bowling alley ball with
terrific speed. I

Rev. Albin Larson, pastor of the
Augustana church of Thief River
Falls, returned yesterday from War-
road and Spooner, Minn., where he
has spent several days in religious
work in the vicinity of the two cities
mentioned.

Rev. Larson officiated at the annual
meeting of the congregations there
and also delivered several sermons at
various churches in the surrounding
country. He told a representative of
[The Tribune last night of the fearless-
ness and aggressive spirit shown by
two student ministers, who are in
charge of churches at Warroad and
Spooner, Rev. Samuel Johnson at the
first-mentioned village, and Rev.
Andy M. Swanson at Spooner. The
latter, while in charge of the church
work at Spooner, has three outlying
towns to serve as well, and generally
makes his way to the various meeting
houses by walking each Sunday the
distances lying between the various
villages. It is not uncommon for Rev.
Swanson to preach at the morning
services in Spooner, walk to Graceton,
a distance of 12 miles — and the go-
ing is none too easy through the
snow fields — for the afternoon meet-
ing, and return ' to Spooner for his
regular Sunday evening services.

Rev. Larson, however, was not com-
pletely outdone by his brother min-
ister on his recent visit to Spooner,
for he walked from Roosevelt, where
he preached Wednesday, to I Willow
Creek, where he also spoke, and back
to a little hamlet known as Swift,
where he addressed a congregation in
the evening. The distance covered for
the day was a little more than 20
miles, but Rev. Larson said he rather
enjoyed the long trudge through the
snow.

"The fearless and spirited aggres-
siveness of the two ministers to me
was a revelation," said Rev. Larson.
"These two young men who - have
chosen preaching of the gospel as
their life's work are doing a noble
service out there in their territory.

Page Five.

They are natural-born pioneers and to
blaze the trail is quite the usual
thing with -them. They have but to
hear of duty and they go— no need
to tell them. I enjoyed immensely
my. visit to the congregations and
would go there more often in the fu-
ture had I th e opportunity and time.
Folks generally in the vicinity of
Spooner seem to be getting along as
well as any other place that I have
visited in these northern sections.
| They have plenty to eat, warm cloth-
ing, their children attend school every
day, and what more can one expect '
in these rather difficult times. I speak
of; the fanners, of course, living in
the outermost regions, who have long
hauls to market."

EVER HEAR OF A FISH

MINE?. MAKE EASY MONEY

In certain parts of the world min-
ing for fish is a very profitable occu-
pation.

Many thousands of years ago the
oceans covered large portions of the
world which now are dry land. The
whole fade of the globe has altered,
for you may now find high mountains
in. places where formerly there were
plains or even great seas.

As the mountains were heaved up ,
by subterranean explosions, the wa- '.
ters receded, leaving behind 'the re-
mains of countless millions of their
inhabitants. That is why we find, in
Switzerland enormous deposits of fos-
sil seafish hundreds of miles away
from the sea.

These fossils retain the oil that was
present in the bodies of living fish
thousands of years ago. Matured by
its immense age, this oil has extraor-
dinary curative properties Avhen used
in the treatment of chilblafns and cer-
tain forms of skin disease.

The fossils are dug out, often from
and the oil known as i'chthyol is dis-
considerable distances /beneath the soil
tilled from them. It is extremely val-
uable, for a great quantity of fossil
fish is ndeded before a pint of oil can
be produced.

the corporation, were closed in prep-
eration for local and congressional
district meetings of members and for
the national convention.

All members in each community or
elevator unit will meet on February 7
to elect a delegate to their congres-
sional district meeting. These dis-
trict meetings will be held at Hallock
on February 20, at Sleepy Eye on
February 22 and at Marshall on Feb :
ruary 23, and will name delegates to
attend the annual national convention
of the U. S. Grain Growers in Chicago
March 21. . Delegates from Annandale,
Wright county, will attend the Sleepy
Eye meeting.

The patronage dividend plan of the
organization will be retained at all
costs, officers announced. A decision
of the national board of directors last
week to open sales agencies in time
to handle the 1922 crop/ and authoriz-
ing steps to obtain seats on grain ex-
changes "where necessary and advis-
able," had been interpreted in some
quarters to mean that the patronage
dividend idea had been discarded, they
said.

The Farmers Elevator and Milling
company at Marshall, Lyon county,
which handled 415,000 bushels of
grain last year, has'signed a contract
with the Grain Growers, it was an-
nounced this week.

W.CTJU. Meeting
IsWell Attended

Rev. Clinton Cook Speaks

of Wonderful Progress

Made by Temperance

"Shall Law Be Sovereign"

Subject of Address by

Mrs. J. M. Bishop

their trips have • they been accorded
the friendly and cordial and fair treat-
ment that they have had on their trip
to Crookston and Thief River Falls.
I believe that the advertising that the
boys have done for you all here has
been at least as valuable as tnat done
for Two Harbors by the boys making
the trip. We would like to see a team
from your section play here this year
or next year so that we could recip-
rocate. ,
"Sincerely yours,

"Frank A. Rose."

About sevehty-five interested citi-
zens attended the meeting of the W.
C. T- U. at the home of Mrs. Christ
Storholm on Tuesday afternoon. The
second anniversary of the National
Constitutional: Prohibition victory was
fittingly observed by splendid talks
and papers by the members.

Rev. Clinton Cook in his talk spoke
of the -wonderful progress made in
temperance work since the time of the
international convention which he at-
tended in Portland many years ago
at which time Miss Lillian Stevens
was the world president.

Mrs. J. M. Bishop's address on the
subject "Shall Law Be Sovereign in
the United States" was listened to in-
tently, comment among those present
indicating that she had struck the
keynote of the whole matter. The
speaker made; it clear that unless in-
dividuals themselves took a public
stand- for what is right and for law
enforcement that little could be ac-
complished. The entire subject was
handled in a: masterful manner and
showed that th e speaker had gone in-
to the matter! thoroughly.

Too much cannot be said of the un-
tiring efforts put forth by the presi-
dent, Mrs. James O. Sether in making
the local organization the success that
it is today. In the course of Mrs.
Sether's remarks on Tuesday she
quoted the following words," Wher-
ever Old Glory flows, where the
liquor traffic lives, if it lives at all,
lives as an outlaw, a thing to be
hunted, cursed-and hounded."

APPRECIATE TREATMENT HERE.

Two Harbors Basket Ball Supporters
Strong for Thief River Falls.

That the Two Harbors basket ball
team and their supporters are appreci-
ative of the cordial and fair treatment
extended the basketeers on their recent
appearance here, is indicated by the
following letter received by The Tri-
bune from the lake town boys who
went home all blowed up oveJ the abil-
ity of the Thief River Falls quint and it
is said that they consider the rub giv-
en them by the local athletes about the
closest they ever received from any
team in the country. Hence there
has been a demand in Two Harbors
for copies of. The Tribune containing
reports of the recent game here. The
letter from ; Mr. Rose is appended:
"Editor of Tribune,

"Thief River Falls, Minn.
"Dear Sir: :

"Since the return of the local basket
ball team from your section of the
country therej have been numbers of
inquiries for copies of papers with ac-
counts of the games they played.
Would it be possible for you to mail
me about five copies of each issue
of The Tribune in which appear ac-
counts of the games or comments in
which local people would be interest-
ed? You may bill m e for same and
I'll mail you a check.

The double-hiader basket ball bill
at the Auditorium between the Cam- 1
bridge five and the Thief River Falls
aggregation played on Friday and
Saturday night, resulted in Cambridge
winning both co itests. The first by a 1
score of 17 to 30 and the second by!
the exceedingly close margin of 17 to
18, the last gaAie perhaps being one 1
of the most clostiy played and exciting 1
games played ii Thief River Falls so 1
far this year, ii which th e local five
took the lead fram the start' and held 1
it up until about ten minutes before!
the .close of the half when Cam-!
bridge, by a spurt of speed and a!
like amount of good luck crawled up]
and passed the local stars, but only
done so after th ; local quint had their
lineup seriously impaired by the loss 1
of two of the outstanding players. '

Cambridge bought 'with them a!
Thief River Fa: Is Norton, all-Ameri-
can high school .performer, and Lou-;
den, who is well-known to basket ball
followers in Thisf River Falls, as well
as other basket ball centers 6f the
northwest. Bot i of these star per-:
formers played leading roles Friday
and Saturday night, particularly the
first-mentioned foung star, who lived
up to his reputation by speedy work
on the floor anc also in flinging bas-
ket after- basket for his team from
deep positions, ;.nd his accuracy in
this connection was the marvel, of the
large crowd present at both contests.

The loss of th? second game Satur-
day evening ma;- again be safely laid
to the incapacitation of "Swede" Carl-
son, star forward of the local team,
who no doubt ha> a regiment of jinxes
following him a lout, determined that
no game of his will be played with-
out his taking liis share of punish-
ment. In the ga ne with Two Harbors
a couple of wesks ago he received
a painful and '; erious sprain to his
right ankle, and he entered the con-
test Saturday n ght with two braces
to protect the i ijured member. They
provided him s<ant protection, how-
ever, for during the spirited play the
other, night he turned it again and
was compelled tc retire from the line-
up.

Thief River Falls led the Cambridge
team up to withii i less than 10 seconds
of the close and the latter flinging
two baskets at t lis stage of the fray
resulted in defeat. The local boys
deserved to win by
averages known to

contest Saturday night and it is un-
derstood that they will not in future
appear in the lineup. Local followers
of these two basket ball men regret
that they have dropped from the! role,
but It is understood by The Tribune
that the men/have left the team as far
as any future appearances are; con-
cerned. ■ ! j ' :

DR. W. L. BOYD HEADS

STATE VETERINARIANS

Dr. W. L. Boyd, professor of veter-
inary medicine at the University of
Minnesota was elected president of
the Minnesota's State Veterinary Med-

. Minnesota did the largest business
in its history during the year just
closed. .

For the twelve; calendar months
ending, December 31, 1921, according
to figures compiled by the state audit-
or,' transactions involving a total of
$102,387,474.20 were entered in the
books of the department.

Of this amount j $50,997,726.94 rep-
resented . receipts ■ while the expend-
itures totaled $51,389,747.26. The
legal bookkeeping period for the state
is from July to July, hence the ex-
cess of expenditures.

From- taxes of various kinds the
state treasury was enriched to the
extent of- $22,744,590.39. Department-
al fees, and other earnings contribut-
ed the ^balance, $28,253,236.55. The
largest '.source of revenue was from
,state taxes amounting to $11,271,650,
08 andi the" second largest, the rail-
road gross earnings tax. From this
source more than $8,000,000 was real-
ized. Another large revenue producer
was the. sale of motor licenses which
is the principal basis of the good roads
program inaugurated to pull Minne-
sota out-bf the mud. More than $5,-
000,000, was received from the sale of
auto tags,

WMle direct taxation is the chief
source of revenue of every common-
wealth :there are other lines or rev-
enue and thes e are found in depart-
mental fees and earnings of various
kinds. Minnesota fared well in this
respect last year and to the credit of
those in charge it must be said that
the receipts in the majority of cases
were in excess of the expenditures.
Thei state insurance department gave
its check for over $125,000. The dairy
and "' food department was credited
with earnings of" over $175,000 am;
the state game and fish commission
with a sum slightly under $400,000.
Large earning factors were those of
hotel inspection with receipts of over
$41,000. Oil inspection with receipts
of more than $173,000, and the sec-
retary of state with fees from the
filing of articles of incorporation to-
taling $107,705. Royalties from iron
ore mined on state land exceeded
550.08; $1,000,000. Interest on state, loans
aidecLjnaterially, likewise the interest
due on the sale of state lands. The
two were responsible for a contribu-
tion of more than $3,000,000.

Although receipts are a necessity
and their increase^ with the years
cause for rejoicing and an indication
of the state's prosperity, it is the ex-
penditures that interest the average
taxpayer. Some large items in dis-
bursements were listed last year but
they were mostly in aid of some state
activity such as agriculture, good
roads and education. Over $10,000,-
000 was expended for the latter. Next
come special aid to veterans of the
World- war and in turn the construc-
tion of good roads. Minnesota's finan-
cial story, however, is best told in the
tables covering the principal items of
receipts and expenditures for the year
just closed.

FARM CROPS DECREASE

Unprecedented Drop of 59 Per Cent
an Aire in Value of Grain

There is no parallel in the records
of the bureau of markets and crops
etsimates, to the fall of $2i.22, 29
per cent, in the average value per
acre, of ten crops, constituting nine-
tenths of all the crops produced, which
occurred in the two years from 1919
to 1921. It was announced today by
the department of agriculture. The
decline was found by the department
to have been from $35.74 in 1919 to
$14.52 in 1921.

The general trend of the average
was downward, the department's fig-
ures show, from about $14 per acre in
the years immediately following the
civil war, to hardly S8 in 1896, the
lowest point in the industrial depres-
sion of that .time, it was said.

The average per acre_advanced to
$16.49 in 1913, and reached the "peak"
of $35.74 in 1919,

The fall in the average, the depart-
ment said, after 1919. was "more rap-

New Mayor Takes

Office Saturday-
Wiiiis Nason, Patrol Leader,-
to Assume High Office
for One Day Only

Mayor Bratrud Will take

Much Needed Rest and

Vacation Over Sunday

Next Saturday it will be Mayor
Nason. Willis Nason, 15, patrol lead-
er of the boy scouts, has been select-
ed to fill the office of mayor for a
day to see what the boys would do
when invested with full- authority.
Mayor Bratrud has given his consent,
and on Saturday morning will turn his
regalia over to his successor for the
day. Gee, boys, what kind of a man
is this new mayor? Is he strong for
the rights of the down trodden young
person, now amenable to the curfew
ordinances and other obnoxious juv-
enile barriers to late nights, or is he
a stern visaged young man with a
civic mission?

We understand the new mayor will
hold a special council meeting late
Saturday and will ask some embar-
rasing questions of movie proprietors
and others who are in the habit of
sending the boys home at the stroke
of 9:00 bells. He may also fire the
police department unless they agree to
wink the other eye when small boys
are caught out after dark in the sum-
mer time. He may have other reforms
in view, but as we understand it, most
of the changes are in the direction of
making life more bearable for the
young man who desires freedom from
all restraint.

•The experiment will be watched
with interest and the Tribune will
endeavor to give next week the im-
pressions received by the young man
and his friends of the city, its vices
and its virtues, as seen from the may-
or's office.

"42 BELOW" WEATHER.

Cold Wave Commencing Saturday Is
Continuing Unabated.

The cold wave, 8* old-fashioned
blizzard, that visited i this section of
the country Saturday, has left in its
wake the coldest weather so far ex-
perienced this year. The thermometer,
which registered 25 below zero Satur-
day night, has crept steadily until Sun-
day morning thermometers in various
sections of the city stood at from 38
to 42 degrees .below zero.

Snow was blowing furiously Satur-
day afternoon, but abated during the
night. Sunday morning, bright and
clear, brought with it the bitter cold
that is continuing at the time The
Tribune goes to press.

Weather reports :do' not indicate
that there will be any appreciable let-
up in the cold spell, and it is thought
that it will continue for several days.

The present cold wave is by far the
coldest .weather of the winter.

is in such bad condition, the various

Federation Defends Farm-
ers' and Consumers' In-
terests in Hearings

Attorney Says Present .In-.

quiry Involves- Millions.

in Rate Reductions

The American Farm Bureau feder-
ation, backed up by the state feder-
ations, is making another vigorous
attack on railroad freight rates, ac-
cording to information received at the
county farm bureau office.

Transportation experts and attor-
neys employed by the federation are
appearing every day before . the In-
terstate Commerce commission to de-
fend the interests of the farmers and
the consuming public in a general rate
investigation is- to last until late in
February.

"The American Farm Bureau fed-
eration already has saved every Am-
erican farmer an average of $30 in
lower freight rates for i-922," James
R. Howard, president of the federa-
tion, said in announcing-plans for the
farmers' new fight before the federal
commission. ; J

The present inquiry involves rate
reductions that will mean millions, of
dollars to the general public, the
farm bureau attorneys say. They are
devoting particular attention to the
hearings on lumber rates, Jan. 26, and
27; on fertilizers, Jan. 28; on the
farmers, shippers' and consumers' -at-
titude toward freight rates, Jan.' 30
to Feb. 4; vegetable oil, Feb: 8; grain,
and agricultural products, Feb.:9;
livestock, Feb. 10; canned goods and
wholesale groceries, Feb. 15; fruits
and vegetables, Feb. 16 and 17; and
